Frank’s teaching and mentoring on the Hammond Organ assured me I knew what I was doing, exposed me to new ideas and concepts for improvising, and continuously inspired me. He ignited an inner spark to get out there and make music in the real world again. And I use the techniques I learned from Frank’s lessons every time I sit down to play!
Students of all levels will have something to gain from being exposed to his carefully crafted Blues Etudes. I can’t recommend Frank Montis and his lessons enough!

As a Master of Music student, I chose Frank as one of my main teachers. His lessons are about more than technique; they focus on vision, feeling, interpretation, and simplicity. Thanks to Frank, I have become a nearly entirely different musician within a year.

Frank is a great teacher and genuine Hammond specialist. His patient style and bespoke exercises yield tangible outcomes. I look forward to my lessons, and taking lessons with Frank at HammondLessons.com was the best decision during lockdown.
Frank is a great teacher, a genuine Hammond specialist that is true to the style and traditions of his heroes such as Smith and McGriff and an overall nice guy too! He has a patient teaching style and has created a series of bespoke exercises/tunes with real tangible and practical outcomes.
I really look forward to my lessons and despite being crazy busy with my own teaching business I make a point to schedule a lesson as it not only progresses my Hammond playing but it is an hour of ‘escapism’ from my busy schedule! Taking lessons with Frank at HammondLessons.com has been the best decision I have made during lockdown!

If you want to learn to play a Hammond Organ, I highly recommend Frank. From Frank, I learned how to set up the instrument and what each adjustment does. His professional screen view makes lessons easy, and using Zoom is a treat.
