Lopez was the first instructor to help me grasp chord voicings and swing rhythm on a grand piano. I am an Upper Valley jazz lover. She has a wealth of knowledge and makes even difficult progressions seem manageable. I get creative energy from every session.

The lessons are engaging informative and filled with energy with Lopez Buckey. Tutoring in Forest Hills she emphasizes not only technical skills but also the emotional and expressive side of music which has made a remarkable impact on my learning experience.
