James Hutchins Queen Creek High

Working with CTS was one of the most amazing, influential experiences that my students were able to take part in. Our students were able to experience the rock feel, and as they participated, they learned stronger fundamentals and complex rhythms that in one context complicated, but able to learn how to make them not only simple, but applicable and engrained. Further, my students were able to get the experience of working with a live band, as well as a living composer! This was one of the most rewarding experiences that the students of Queen Creek High School got to participate in-they were excited, or as they would say, lit, before, during, and after, wanting to do more and work with CTS in the future.

CTS was so professional-they were organized, experienced musicians that just happened to be able to work with kids in the most kind, patient, and endearing way. It was truly a blessing to work with them. They worked hard to ensure we had a great performance, and worked hard to raise money for the orchestra program-they are some of our strongest advocates in that regard. Thank you, CTS!!!

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help spread the word. This truly was amazing!!

“Combining their inventive sound with a forward-thinking musicality, CTS-Jeff Senour consistently manage to hit all the right notes. With undeniably unique songs and engaging performances, this is one Rock & Roll Band to keep your eyes (and ears) on.”

Visili Makavos

For the academic school year of 2017-2018, I served as the director of both the Choral and Orchestral programs for the American Leadership Academy Ironwood Campus. Both my junior high and high school students had the opportunity to perform and piece together an incredible concert! I had over 150 students who worked very hard to prepare the music and their efforts were greatly achieved through the professionalism, support, and inspiration that CTS brought to the concert. It was astounding to see and hear all three of our music departments collaborating with CTS as the Choir (which Jeff excitingly allowed me to arrange parts for) backed the Band and Orchestra. Jeff Senour and the CTS musicians interacted with the student musicians throughout several rehearsals including the sound check and concert as well as graciously recognizing them for their efforts and hard work. I also had the privilege of having one of his electric violinists, Annice, come to my school on several occasions to work with my string students. I have always been a fan of rock music and it is apparent that the music of CTS is truly unlike any other rock music that one will come across. The themes of patriotism, hope, encouragement, and love speak universally in world that is getting darker; CTS's music is a light to shine through the darkness that we face in the days to come. They certainly served our music program by generously performing a benefit concert for the growth of our music program. As the conductor, I had a blast creating a strong line of communication from Jeff CTS to my students, and back to CTS. I would highly recommend that this is a blessing and opportunity that no one should ever pass by if given the chance to work with these fine musicians. - Vassili Makavos, Composer, Conductor, Opera Singer.

“I’ve been to a few CTS-Jeff Senour shows, and it never ceases to amaze me how they perform each song with such passion and enthusiasm, just as if it were the first time they were playing it live.”

Dr Walt Temme- Mountain View High School

“12.27.2011 A TESTIMONIAL FROM DR. WALT TEMME! I want to share a few thoughts about my students’ recent performance with the CTS band. My symphonic strings from Mountain View High School (Mesa, Arizona) performed with CTS at a concert honoring our veterans and protective services (fire and police). My students played string backup to four tunes arranged for performance with CTS and had an absolute BLAST. The music was fun and engaging, and the band members treated the kids with warmth and respect. CTS interacted with the orchestra on both a personal and professional level giving them a true rock concert experience they will never forget. Through their love of music and sharing it with the orchestra, CTS drew the students into the performance experience getting them excited and JAZZED for an unforgettable performance.

“Jeff Senour - the CTS band and team members - were absolutely amazing each are masters of their own musical instruments. Their music has the message of patriotism, love for mankind and encouragement for anyone in the audience. The skill in which they perform their own original music is with such synchronization its more than a work of art, it’s genius. Out of the goodness of their hearts they did a charity concert for the Marine Corps League, Mesa Saguaro Det. 554 to raise money to help Veterans. Their Rock n Roll is awesome, easy to listen to yet gets the heart pumping. You leave their concerts with such a good feeling in your soul. Soon their TV show will be picked up and they will finally get the recognition they deserve for all their hard work. They truly Serve, through their music, for the betterment of all mankind.

“I am the education director for the Corona Symphony Orchestra in Corona, California. Our Conservatory Students and Youth Symphony recently performed withe CTS Rock Band as part of the Freedom Rock Experience. My phone and email have been burning up with the positive comments from students, parents and audience members. Our students worked very hard to prepare the music and their efforts were greatly rewarded with the professionalism, courtesy and outright joy that CTS brought to the event. The program included an honor guard, Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, and other dignitaries. I was pleased to see our students interact with the very positive social forces. The CTS musicians interacted with the student musicians throughout the rehearsal, sound check and concert, and recognized them for their work. The band worked very well with our local conductor to create a strong communication from CTS to the conductor to the students, and back to CTS. Not easy to do in just one c”

I want to commend to you Jeff Senour.  I know Jeff as a friend and commend him to you as a committed Christian.  He does not just attend Red Mountain Community Church.  He is active in our ministry.  Jeff understands churches and church work and shares the larger vision for the mission of the local Church.   He has a great heart to use his abilities to help local churches do more in their communities.

Jeff and his band CTS, recently performed a benefit concert at our church that raised money for a charity that ministers locally to teenage moms.   It is a charity that we support and would love to do more for.  Jeff was able and willing to add his efforts to ours and so help raise money for this important cause.  

The thing I love about Jeff is that he pays attention to detail and leaves no stone unturned in terms of his preparation for the event.  All who worked with Jeff expressed this to me and all of them felt the show came off very well.  Most importantly it successfully raised money!  The people from the charity that benefited all expressed that Jeff was a joy to work with.  I highly recommend partnering with Jeff to accomplish more for the concerns of your community!

From Ann Templeton- Chandler High School Principal. The Chandler High School Chamber Orchestra rocked it out with CTS in a benefit concert that included great music, inspiring messages, and much celebration. The event was highly successful and allowed CHS students the opportunity to perform with professional artists and a full stage show, including high tech lighting and video. It was amazing and our musicians loved it! Jeff Senour was instrumental in organizing the top notch performance, and helped us maximize our fundraising through ticket sales, advertising, and auctioning items. His creativity and enthusiasm were catching; our students, orchestra director, and I really enjoyed working with Jeff and CTS! - Ann Templeton Assistant Principal Chandler High School”
