“All three of our children were students of both Dan Burch and Venita Burch. They were encouraged and pushed to be the best they can be in their chosen instruments. Dan and Venita have poured so much of themselves into my kids, and they have nurtured a deep love of music in them. One son is a hobby musician now, enjoying the bass and banjo. Our younger son is currently studying classical voice and violin in college with plans to eventually perform in operas (he was a drummer under Mr. Burch’s instruction). Our daughter, a guitarist and pianist, has gone the commercial music route and is hired to sing and play in many venues around Pagosa Springs. Dan and Venita are both largely responsible for their musical successes!” — Brandye Kiker

“We are grateful for the tremendous impact Mrs Burch has had on our child’s musical journey. Her dedication, patience, and unwavering belief in our child’s potential has been instrumental in her progress. Thanks to Mrs Burch, our child looks forward to every lesson with enthusiasm and joy.  Our young son has also just joined in on the music journey with ukulele lessons offered by Mr Burch. We wholeheartedly recommend the Burch’s to any music student or parent seeking an extraordinary music education for their child or self. Their genuine nature, motivating approach, and ability to ignite a passion for music make them a true gem in the world of music instruction.” —Ericka Vincent

“Dan and Venita Burch are fabulous music teachers. They have shared their talents with our children for many years, spanning the areas of voice, piano, trumpet, percussion, guitar, and I'm sure there is more!We are so grateful for the hand they played both as mentors and educators in helping us "grow" our children.” — Kelley Grose
