“Nate Lee has a rare ability. Not just in his fiddle playing, which is stunning, but in the way he teaches his students how to play and practice their own instrument. With humor, great patience, and sweet encouragement, he teaches each individual student in the unique way they learn. He will change his own approach as he understands what direction you are taking with your musical endeavors. Nate seems to remember what it was like to be new”
