  " An extraordinary teacher!!! Not only does he have a great and exciting way of teaching technique and theory, on top of that, he manages to convey the enthusiasm he has for music to his students so well. His method is motivating, and he is also one of the friendliest people! I started lessons in upright bass last year, and I've already been gigging!!!! I also like that fact that Petros is a mulit-instrumentalist, because during the lesson, we can jam while he plays other instruments! two thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

  " My daughter Isabella is taking lessons with Petros, and we are all so happy with him! She is 8 years old and she wanted to learn the guitar. Petros is such a kind-hearted and friendly person! He is very patient, and Isabella is progressing very fast and having a great time at the same time! Thank you Petros, on behalf of all the family! You are a true Betterist!"

  " Petros is such a cool dude. I sing in a hip hop band and I wanted to learn an instrument, so I can play too and jam, and he knows how to play everything! I am learning keys and bass guitar with him, and the cool thing is that he can play all these instruments and we can jam together. "

  "Petros Klampanis - In addition to his bass virtuosity, he is also a fantastic composer, arranger, and has pioneered new techniques for teaching contemporary music performance to his students with diverse needs. He is an all-terrain bassist, with a fantastic command of his instrument, and actively playing, touring the U.S. and Europe as well, and is a part of the jazz scene in this bustling NYC music capital of the world. Equipped with a world-class education, Petros is absolutely a gem teacher to have, I have learned so much from him already, my playing has improved instantly. Petros is deep, and truly always ready to give."

I am happy and real lucky to find a good teacher in him, an all-terrain, good guy, clean and fun loving. "
