TESTIMONIALS

Ceylon is not only an incredibly talented musician, but a natural teacher. I had the pleasure of being a member of Boston University’s Flute Ensemble for a semester under his direction. He is detail-oriented, and creative; dedicated to both technique and artistic expression. The ensemble was large, 10-12 members, and Ceylon excelled at working with the group as well as mentoring one-on-one.

I would highly recommend Ceylon for any position, whether in performance or education, because of his extraordinary work ethic and ability to work with, teach and learn from others. Studying under Ceylon for just a few months improved my playing, and I am more than confident he’ll inspire wherever he goes!
