Brian Kim has a wonderful, professional setup. He is kind and very talented. I have worked with many sound engineers and he is one of the best! I will be back to start recording a project that I am preparing. I TRUST his expertise!! L. Breen

Working with Brian has been really great so far, honestly better than I expected. He really friendly and welcoming and creates a great space. He's a good listener and also a great teacher, as I'm new to music and he's done a great job at guiding me through the song making process. Definitely recommend. On a personal note its nice to not have to drive to LA, so orange county people take note!

We can not say enough great things about Brian! Firstly, he is so patient, calm, friendly, and kind to my 10 year old daughter. This provides a great atmosphere for her and makes her feel comfortable and at ease to learn! Now the lessons-Brian is very knowledgeable and taught her from the basics. She has greatly improved! When I first listened from another room, she sounded so good that I didn’t realize that was her! He makes sure she understands an exercise and will keep going over it before moving on. He has taught my daughter better techniques she couldn’t learn at school. He also plays so wonderfully! Thank you Brian!!!!

Brian has been teaching my daughter for 4 months now. She started with very basic knowledge of the instrument she picked up in her middle school band. From the first lesson Brian was extremely patient, very encouraging, always working hard to improve her skills and eliminate unwanted sounds. Brian is very knowledgeable and knows how to work with children. The progress my daughter made in such short time is incredible. She is always looking forward to her sax lessons. She even auditioned and was accepted to Honors Band program thanks to Brian. We highly recommend Brian as a music teacher.

I recently worked with Brian to record a few episodes of a radio show. He's a joy to work with, very professional, and provides a great service. I highly recommend booking him!

We are using Brian as our son's music tutor. From our 1st lesson to the last Brian is always working hard to improve our son's skills. Brian is very knowledgeable and very accommodating to our needs. We highly recommend him as a music teacher..!

Before taking lessons from Brian I knew nothing about saxophone and music. Therefore my progress hasn’t been as fast as I had hoped. Brian really takes the time to teach the basics and pay close attention to saxophone embouchure. Also he is very enthusiastic about music and willing to teach you any songs you want to learn. I am looking forward to being able to perform my current favorite song with his help, but before I can learn that I have to master the basics first. I can definitely see progress from the practice videos I have taken. Will recommend learning from Brian.

I have a 8th grader and It took me more than a year to find a good saxophone teacher like Brain. He’s very detailed oriented, very patient, knows how to communicate with younger students. I finally found a good saxophone teacher that my kid likes! Because of that, daily practices became easier, I don’t need to yell or push too much any more. It’s a big relief, phew~
