Testimonials
What Musicians Are Saying
“No matter where you are in your musical journey, Mick can help you take your playing to the next level.”
“He knows exactly what audition committees are looking for. He'll give you very realistic, honest feedback that's going to help you win an audition — and you can't really get that anywhere else.
Mick is a sensitive musician, a great listener, and a meticulous teacher.”
— Jenny Seo, Assistant Principal Viola, Los Angeles Philharmonic
“Not many professionals are able to communicate so effectively the steps needed to win orchestra auditions. This class is a must for any musician that aspires to play in a professional orchestra.”
Gina Caviar, Freelance Violist, Viola Teacher
"Mick Wetzel makes mastery feel reachable. He guest coached in my Audition Accelerator program and, within minutes, had my student playing with a freedom they hadn't found in months.
Decades on a professional stage have given him an ear for what a player actually needs. If you can work with him, do."
Christopher Still, Second Trumpet Los Angeles Philharmonic — Founder, Honesty Pill Coaching
