Colorado Music Institute

Our kiddos have been attending CMI for a while now. My son has been with Bill Travis for several years learning drums. Bill has been a rock for my son, who seems to have found a passion for drumming through Bill, who teaches with a passion, and a child-like heart. My son is inspired and challenged by him, and eager to continue with lessons and practicing. Thanks for everything Bill.

Bill Travis is a fantastic percussion teacher! Bill taught my son all facets of percussion- from snare rudiments and mallet instruments to jazz and rock rhythms on the kit. He also helped my daughter who was a saxophone player with rhythms when she was struggling with sight-reading. He can do it all and most importantly, he knows how to talk to and relate to teenagers. My son says he is the most fun teacher he has ever had. (His favorite part of the lesson?….the jam session at the end of each lesson!) We highly recommend Bill.

5 stars all the way for Colorado Music Institute! Bill Travis is the bomb drum teacher and my drumming has improved so much with his guidance. James puts together Rock Sessions where we students can perform live music in a band of other students … this creates great goals and motivation for practicing not to mention that it’s a blast to rock out in front of a crowd. I highly recommend this music school.
