“Vince is a world class player, bandleader and his brush work is amazing. As a tutor his knowledge is vast in all areas”

Gábor Dörnyei (Thunder Duo, Thriller Live)

“Vince is an amazing musician, there is no question about that, but the warm personality, infectious enthusiasm and genuine love of music that he brings to every lesson has been a real joy to behold. With his guidance my 13 year old daughter Rachel passed her grade 8 RSL exam with a Distinction. Vince has not only been able to raise her technical skills to new levels but has also managed to convey the importance of ‘making music’ and not being satisfied with just playing what’s written correctly and allowed her to perform with greater passion, intelligence and musicality.”

Jim Barnard (Parent)

“Hey Vince! I just want to thank you so much for everything you taught me and for being one hell of a mentor. I honestly don’t think I’d have had this opportunity without you being a huge part of my journey.”

Learn the treasured art of playing the brushes……Vince will show you how to do that and more!

Many of Vince’s students have gone on to further their studies to Royal Academy of Music, Purcell Music School, The Brit School and in some cases have pursued a career in music education and tutoring others.

JOEL CARPENTER – UAL Extended Diploma Music – DISTINCTION

He will be heading to Brighton in September to study for a degree in Music Performance & Production at BIMM.  I would never have thought that was something he’d do, but he’s found something he’s passionate about, good at, and wants to learn more of.

The final stage of his schooling didn’t take place at Riddlesdown of course, but I know that the encouragement he received to use his drumming skills in school productions and performances, and the fantastic lessons provided by Mr Dunn, were a major factor in helping him choose to pursue music at college, and now at university.  So thank you for being such an important part of his journey.  Please pass on my thanks to the others who were involved in nurturing his musical talents too.

Alison Carpenter
