Testimonials

“Róisín played at our wedding ceremony in 2022. She created a custom piece of music for my bridal entrance and helped us choose the songs for the ceremony when we were unsure. She played violin, piano, guitar and sang. Róisín is professional, easy to work with and I would absolutely recommend her as a wedding musician”

John, Music Manager, Princess Cruise Line

“My cousins and I started lessons with Roisin when I was 8 years old. In the beginning we learned the guitar and then switched to the piano, completing music theory and classical piano exams. Roisin is a supportive teacher, is very friendly, genuine and easy to talk to. She is organised and good at motivating me to practise, giving weekly practice plans to get the work done. Roisin makes learning music fun and interesting and I would recommend her as a teacher to anyone who would like to learn.”

Ruby, Music Student

“I was starting Grade VI on the piano with the Royal Irish Academy when I started going to Róisín for lessons, and I completed from there to Grade VIII. Róisín made the lessons fun, enjoyable and you could always have the craic with her. I really enjoyed the lessons with her and would highly recommend her as a teacher.”

Ethan, Music Student

“I started lessons with Roisin at the age of 10. My older sister and I both participated in a music workshop week that Roisin set up in the summer of that year. Each day we learnt something new in music and were introduced to a variety of different instruments. We then started piano lessons that September. Since then I have learned lots of music theory, and completed my Royal Irish Academy Grade 6. While also learning many traditional Irish tunes and contemporary pieces. I’ve really enjoyed my lessons with Roisin and would recommend her as a teacher. She has been nothing but supportive and helpful in learning music. She always keeps me interested in music and encourages me to do my best.”

Aoibhe, Music Student

“In 2016 started lessons with Róisín at the age of 12. Before then I played the piano accordion, which Róisín continued teaching me until introducing me to the piano. Since then I have learned lots of music theory, completed my Royal Irish Academy Grade 8, while also learning traditional Irish tunes and contemporary pieces. I’ve really enjoyed my lessons with Roisin and would recommend her as a teacher. She keeps me interested and finds different pieces of music she knows I’ll like to learn.”

Aaron, Music Student

“I started lessons with Roisin at the age of 12. Before that I had never had any real experience of music before but Roisin really helped to discover my musical abilities. I started learning the piano and over the last few years have really found my love of the instrument. I have learned so much from Roisin including theory, completing my Grade 8 exam as well as numerous traditional, classical and modern pieces. I’ve really enjoyed my lessons with Roisin and would recommend her as a teacher. She keeps me interested and always listens to make sure I’m enjoying it. She is always there to help me.”

Aisling, Music Student

“Our 6 year old daughter started music lessons with Róisín in September 2022. She started with the tin whistle and now plays the piano too. We are so lucky to have Róisín as our daughter’s music teacher. Róisín is a fantastic and encouraging teacher and our daughter loves practicing her music and going to her lessons each week. We are in awe of how much Róisín had taught her in such a short space of time. Thank you Róisín!”
