Perfect! Joseph is highly communicative, prompt, professional, and courteous. He is a talented musician and a gifted instructor.

Perfect! Joseph is an excellent instructor, he knows the nuances of bowing and stylistic technique like a true professional and explains everything so it's easy to understand. Would highly recommend.

Perfect! Joseph was excellent. He’s very easy to work with and very patient. He is kind with corrections, and also quick to praise something done right.

Perfect! I started playing the cello as an adult with absolutely no experience, and Joseph has been teaching me from the ground up with patience and encouragement. He truly has a deep knowledge and passion for the cello that makes every lesson inspiring. I look forward to our future lessons!

Perfect! Joseph is an outstanding teacher. I am adult learner who wanted to get back to the cello after about 5 years without playing. Joseph helped me improve from the first lesson. Even taking lessons remotely, he makes a strong personal connection. He has assigned an interesting mix of music including technical exercises, scales, etudes and regular pieces of music which keeps things varied and interesting. He quickly was able to assess my abilities and needs; I feel that he has a very personal approach to understanding his students. I highly recommend Joseph for a student, regardless of age or level.

Perfect! I am on my second lesson and already playing little songs. I was unsure how virtual lessons would be, but he makes them fun and challenging. I am an adult learner and he uses the perfect amount of simple and adult learning techniques. Very highly recommend

Perfect! Funny, excellent ! Patient . 50/10 def recommend . Rather you’ve played and instrument before or haven’t he will work with you and have you playing in no time ! It’ll be a crime if don’t choose him as your instructor !

Perfect! I cannot say enough good things about Joseph. He recently started working with my son, and the difference in my son's playing and enthusiasm for the cello has been incredible. Joseph is incredibly patient, always on time, and professional. His expertise in cello playing and teaching is evident in every lesson. He has a wonderful rapport with kids, making each lesson enjoyable and productive. We feel very fortunate to have found such a dedicated and skilled instructor. Highly recommend!

Perfect! Josef is an EXCELLENT INSTRUCTOR. He pays attention to every little nuance of pitch, hand position, muscle memory. I have had several cello instructors none have been on zoom like the one I just had with Josef. But by FAR he taught me new ways to look at things and break things down to help me understand. I learned more in this lesson than many others I've had in the past with other instructors. My cello has layed dormant for many years .. Josef lit the fire under my cello and my desire to learn once again. I am 73 years old and have goals that Josef will help me reach... Do yourself and your cello a favor... I suggest you choose Josef Salzberg as your next instructor... he is phenomenal!
I plan on studying with him as long as my cello speaks. Good luck to you all!

Perfect! Excellent teacher, he works around my schedule which is very important to me since I am a working adult. He is detailed and he always made sure that you're not too overwhelmed with the practice material.

Perfect! Grateful to have worked with Joseph. He was very helpful, accommodating, and knowledgeable. While taking lessons from Joseph, my daughter was able to easily follow along and get a better understanding of the sheet music she had been working on.

Perfect! My son had his first session with Joseph this evening. Excellent lesson!! Joseph is an experienced teacher. He came to the lesson prepared with music we provided him ahead of the lesson. He is deliberate, objective and targets specific areas for practice/improvement. It’s easy to tell how much my son was inspired, as he is still practicing!

Perfect! Choosing a cello teacher can be a pivotal decision in one's musical journey, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a gem in mine. Not only is he deeply knowledgeable and a true maestro of the cello, but his ability to translate that expertise into actionable guidance is unparalleled. Despite my year of prior experience, it was under his tutelage that I made a significant leap in my skills – saying goodbye to the finger board sticker in just two sessions. He possesses a rare blend of patience, insight, and passion that transforms each lesson into a transformative experience. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone serious about mastering the cello."
