Sebastian Stanley
‘Before Sebastian had become my piano teacher and mentor, I had minimal enthusiasm and direction in my piano journey from previous teachers. I was ready to give up on the piano and continue my musical journey on the trumpet instead. It’s over ten years later and Sebastian has helped me learn different genres of music, achieve several graded examinations, perform a concerto on the trumpet and has even helped me to become a piano teacher. As always Sebastian’s lessons are filled with lots of insights and positivity. He genuinely has a true passion for supporting both the highs and lows of your piano journey and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to our future students.’
As some of you may already know, Sebastian Stanley is a Concert Pianist, recording artist and private piano tutor with over 18 years’ experience, with past students having gone on to study in the London Conservatoires; themselves having been winners of International Competitions.

An incredible testimonial Sebastian has recently received: ‘Sebastian has taught our son the piano for many years now and he has been a brilliant teacher. He has been very encouraging whilst also pushing our son to his full potential. As a result, he loves the piano, practices without prompting and performs beautifully.’
