I was privileged to coach Nicholas as an organ performance major at the University of Toronto. He is a musician who approaches his music-making from a vocal perspective, allowing the organ repertoire to reach a highly expressive performance level. I believe he will make a significant contribution to musical life in Canada, whether as a keyboard artist or in his other other disciplines.

I had the privilege of working with Nicolas over several years, both as a child and later, as a young adult. He is a very talented, musician, and delightful to work with. He has shown his gifts in the variety of his styles, his willingness to work with various voicings, and his very pleasant, giving personality.

Nicholas is a natural…singer, organist, composer…a consummate musician!
His compositional skills reflect a keen stylistic awareness, an intelligence for thoughtful vocal and choral scoring and a thoroughly innovative, creative and joyous spirit.
I look forward to watching his career bloom!

Nicholas is the real deal! In my profession as a performing organist and producer, I have the privilege of collaborating with some of the finest internationally respected performing organists. Apart from their obvious performance skills, they possess personalities that were confident while maintaining a humble and respectful demeanor. As far as I am concerned, these are characteristics of a complete musician. I am happy to state without hesitation that Nicholas possesses all of these and more. He is creative in each of his diverse interests and talents; as a composer and arranger, singer, choir director, accompanist and solo performer. Nicholas is a pleasure to work with and has the character to inspire all working with him towards excellence.
