“In already the small amount of time that I've learned under Peter, I feel like I've learned so much. You won't find a more diligent, gracious, patient, and hardworking teacher that takes time to be as thorough and precise as him.”

  • "I’ve been studying privately with Peter for several months, and he is one of the finest instructors I’ve had the pleasure of working with. His knowledge and professional experience in audio implementation, design, music production, and composition, combined with his ability to teach makes for a world class experience."

  • "As someone with equal footing in video game music composition and implementation, being able to have coaching from someone with experience doing both at as high a level as Peter has been invaluable - I am not aware of many composers of Peter's caliber who also know so much about music implementation. I would highly recommend Peter as a coach for any game music composer or implementer wanting to learn more, but especially to anyone wanting to engage both disciplines."
