I was able to improve through regular feedback sessions and learned a great deal. David has a wealth of experience and is great at sharing it in an informative way. He’s always open to questions and always has a helpful tip on hand.
I plan to continue participating in workshops and courses in the future. I highly recommend it 😊🎷

The 90-Day Transformation has given me a new focus on what to practice and how to approach my practice. I’ve received insights that I’ve never had in the four years I’ve been learning the saxophone. The combination of recording my practice pieces—hearing and evaluating myself—and receiving feedback on how I can improve has opened up crucial creative possibilities for me. My intonation has improved significantly.
The 90-Day Transformation was very intensive in terms of both content and time commitment. At first, I wasn’t fully aware of just how intense it actually was. There was even a moment when I wondered if the effort was really worth it. But giving up is not an option. The effort paid off!
As a logical thinker, I’m used to being self-directed, maintaining control over all processes at all times, and coordinating all relevant steps on an equal footing to aim for clearly defined goals. The 90 TT is a process that thrives on engaging with the coach. The more you’re able to do this, the greater your success will be.

Retreats #5 is a living example of continuous, conceptual development, based on the motivating symbiosis of superficially simple continuity of previous retreat practice and the integration of new challenges with new pieces and new teaching content. In a society in which we value time with money, my conclusion is: "I have gained time - and a lot of quality of life". Thanks also to all the committed participants for the successful event. I am always happy to participate with you.

The retreat took place in a very pleasant atmosphere. The facilities for training, accommodation and catering are ideal and both instructors gave us an instructive time with sensitivity and in-depth knowledge. I learned a lot.
I will be very happy to take part in the next planned Retrats.
So my absolute recommendation!

Particularly satisfied: the two very professional lecturers. The personal, informal relationship there. The togetherness. The level, the standards. The whole atmosphere there, from the location, the location, the catering and accommodation, and also the overall impression was great. I don't know of anything comparable, also in terms of the organization and the selection of pieces. I would recommend David and the retreat at any time. I have absolutely nothing to complain about.

I experience David Brand as a member of his SCOOL community and really appreciate his friendly, positive and approachable manner. He is very competent, both on the instrument and didactically, and picks everyone up where they stand.

I particularly recommend the retreats, 80% of which are certainly due to David's organization and approach. The "rest" is down to the place and the people who come together there. And the second thing I would like to emphasize is David's teaching. Both online and in person. I always leave motivated, with the feeling that I can do a lot of things well and that the challenges are achievable. I've never experienced this anywhere else.

David Brand, a world-class saxophonist, is more than just a teacher for his students, he is a coach. He knows how to competently accompany the individual learning process of his students from start to finish and motivates them to go the extra mile together with the participants of his academy. The use of modern, digital possibilities, in addition to the classic face-to-face lessons, creates a learning environment that is second to none. For me, the Saxophone Academy is the ideal complement to my lessons at the local music school.

Challenge very good. Feedback from David on the topics very good. Videos in the classroom very good. Fun in a manageable group.
A little more focus on classical music would be great. In addition, I'm always afraid in groups like this that the "not so experienced" ones won't dare to take part at some point. (But to be honest, this hasn't been the case in the group so far)

I particularly like the open way of dealing with the participants. I've been watching the YouTube videos for a while now and a lot of them are helpful for me. At the retreat in Seifhennersdorf, most of the participants were much further along than I was, and playing together in an ensemble with only saxophones was foreign to me. But I think that this is a gain for me.

I know David from his numerous teaching videos and a saxophone weekend and I was and am thrilled. That's exactly what I want in a saxophone teacher, competent in both styles (jazz and classical), a whirlwind on the saxophone, full of ideas, friendly, challenging and always very appreciative. He makes me want to play the saxophone more and more!

David responds sensitively to his students, regardless of their age. You leave the lessons motivated and encouraged. What I like is that he often accompanies the lessons, whether with 🎷 or 🎹. That's great. So I'm very satisfied. The chemistry has to be right. And it is.

He explains very well and also shows you how to do it. If you take to heart what he explains and shows you, you will make progress very quickly. Nevertheless, it takes time and you should also be patient.

The format in which we are now operating is rather new to me. The dynamic and friendly approach creates a positive and friendly atmosphere. I really like the content. I am looking for like-minded people with whom it is possible to exchange ideas on a platform like this. David provides me with the necessary input here. It's more about classical music here. Nevertheless, there are enough jazzy pieces. After two years, I still haven't found the form and music I want to play in the long term, or rather the approach to classical music.
