Our Testimonials
“Thank you for the organising an amazing string showcase, the performance was outstanding. As Chinese would say ‘ 繞梁三日’ which is ‘the beautiful sound resonates in the beam (ceiling)for three days’. Bravo teachers!”
Parent
“Our daughter is very excited about Training Band. She has grown in confidence and is very keen to practise and continue to improve. Thank you for providing an environment where she feels comfortable, supported and encouraged. The flute is not an easy instrument to learn. We just want her to feel happy and experience some success around learning her first musical instrument and that seems to be the case at this stage. Thank you.”

School band liaison
“My daughter performed in the band last night at school and it was a wonderful performance. Congratulations to yourself and the team! When my daughter started the band program, she could barely make a “pleasant” sound when playing the flute, and last night was a testament to the hard work, dedication and excellent teaching skills of your team. We are extremely proud of our daughter, and her love of music that is inspired by the wonderful teachings of your band program. Congratulations again.”

“I wanted to email to say thanks for managing this very challenging time well. The teacher has been amazing! She has helped the kids adjust to the new conditions and has done her best to ensure that they still enjoy attending practice lessons online. She is always so positive and happy and has always made my son feel at ease. It mustn’t be easy for you all however you have done such a great job. We are looking forward to face to face lessons.”

“As it’s our last week or so at the school, I wanted to contact you to thank you for all you’ve done with band at the school over the years. Bringing TSA to the school was, I believe, the best move that the old band committee ever made. Your band program is so well run and you can be very proud of your achievements. It has been wonderful watching the band programs growth. I can only imagine the challenges that 2020 brought to TSA. Here’s to 2021 – it is looking more and more positive. I wish you all the very best.”
