It's long been established that musical training helps cognitive facility at every level. Anthony recognizes the importance of this training, realizes the lack of exposure that most people are offered, and is actually doing something about it! Plus, he's just a really cool guy, straight up, and all business when it's time to perform. You would do well to study with him or anyone else at Ultimate Allstars."
