Brett Safers
With a musical journey that commenced at the age of 14 within the realm of church choirs and piano accompaniment for worship teams, I furthered my education at the Metronoom music school in Brandwag, Uitenhage. Embracing ensembles, I was bestowed with an alto saxophone, leading me to join the Roselane Brass Ensemble and later the Mandela Metro School of Arts (formerly MMMA).
Organ lessons with Dr Devandre Boonzaaier enriched my musical palette. In 2013, my commitment deepened as I pursued a qualification in Music, culminating in a 2016 Diploma in Music Education with a focus on Jazz piano and Saxophone, under the wing of John Edwards, Curtis Kettledas and Virgil Matrass. This journey has afforded me opportunities to perform alongside diverse artists in Bay area concerts.
Presently, I assist on occasions at Fathers House Church. Additionally, I operate a music school tailored to individual student preferences.
My commitment extends to inclusive teaching methods, successfully integrating learners with learning, mental, and physical disabilities. I've pioneered approaches to make music a coping mechanism in their weekly lives, firmly believing in the universality of music for everybody and anybody.
