Testimonials:

"I was lucky to have Daniel as an instrumental teacher in my final year of a jazz degree who made lessons very enjoyable in a stressful year. He is a skillful and experienced player and teacher who always tailored the lessons to suit what I was most interested in and created a supportive learning environment that encouraged and inspired me. I would recommend him to any player beginner or advanced." - Andrea

"After nearly 2 years being taught by Danny my development with the flute has been more progressive than I could ever imagined. Danny's knowledge of music is vast from a lifetime of playing all around the world. His teaching style can also be flexible if you are wanting to develop particular areas of your playing." - Alan

"I have worked with Dr. Daniel Rorke on a number of occasions as part of my album band with American Adam Nussbaum and Mark Egan, and as part of a cross-border project playing the music of Art Blakey. He is a most accomplished player with a wonderful technique and deep understanding of jazz and music theory in general. I have seen him teach and he is passionate, committed and popular with the students. This would be a great opportunity to study with an international saxophonist who is highly qualified and accomplished as a musician. The perfect mentor…" - Linley

"I was fortunate to have Daniel as my saxophone teacher for several months. Not only is he a highly skilled and experienced player, but he's also a friendly and knowledgeable teacher. I really appreciated how he tailored each lesson to fit my needs and focus on my personal goals. I would definitely recommend him to students at any level, whether they're just starting out or already advanced players." - Hayley

"My lessons with Daniel have helped me grow a lot as a player. He is always open to what I am interested in and my own musical goals, and shows me all the different ways I can achieve them. Our lessons are always productive and I leave feeling more confident and inspired. This has helped me hugely to stay motivated and inspired" - Mia
