Take Private Clarinet Lessons

About Me

I've been playing and loving music for well more than half a century, now. I got started in second grade when my grandpa brought home a little violin one day, and I've been at it ever since. I was fortunate to take lessons for more than ten years with Carita Page, a teacher who was very warm, encouraging, and caring. I do my best to pass that on to my students in addition to the technique of playing and the theory of music, fascinating as those are.

I feel that playing in groups is very valuable experience for students and gives you a side of music that private lessons alone cannot. I encourage students to look for opportunities to do that. To help provide those opportunities I organized the Cranbury Scout Band, one of very few continuously-operating Scout bands in the country, which I have directed for more that ten years now. I've also been on the staff of several Jamboree Scout bands.

About Me

I've been teaching music for about as long as I've been playing it and I love teaching music the same way it was passed down to me! My explosive passion for music and life is contagious amongst my students and I love nothing more than sharing what I know.

As a professional saxophone player, I've toured the world playing as both a solo artist and part of a band in many genres including Jazz, Funk, Classical, Rock, and Jam Band. Some people I've played with have included Doug Wamble, the Codetalkers, Blueground Undergrass, the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra, and Donna the Buffalo. I've also been part of major label recordings including most recently Doug Wamble's new record for E1 Music. I love all styles of jazz but I'm definitely not a strict jazz-head and you're as likely to see me at a bluegrass or rock concert as you are a jazz club.

My main instrument is saxophone (soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone) but I am also comfortable teaching piano, flute, clarinet, music...

About Me

I have proudly been teaching music privately for 10 years. I have worked with hundreds of children molding their young musical talents. I enjoy being able to see them grow from year to year which is one of the reasons I chose private as opposed to public schools. It's a thrill to have a student with me from a little kid in elementary school all the way until graduation and, know that I was there to help them not only through their musical endeavors but, also through life.

I have experience in all types of music and, I also specialize in NYSSMA, SCMEA, college, and pre-college prep. In college I studied jazz and classical music and also participated in musical productions in and out of school. I played for many years in my church choir as a flautist and clarinetist. I have also been assistant engineer on recordings. I am also very knowledgeable in rock and pop music, and I find it a lot of fun sharing that with my...

About Me

I have been defying modern convention as a solo artist of oboe and voice, bringing exciting and unusual programs to audiences. Because of this I have made it my responsibility to commission works for oboe/voice, and to date have four completed works by Jason Coleman, MuXuan Lin and Lyle Davidson, with many more to come. I have degrees from The Hartt School, New England Conservatory and the University of Missouri-Kansas City Conservatory of Music and Dance where I studied with Humbert Lucarelli, Mark McEwen, and Barbara Bishop.

In addition to performing, I am dedicated to bringing music to the younger generations as I have been teaching woodwinds and voice since 2000. I believe my knowledge and experience of music to be far reaching as I have experience in classical voice and woodwinds, jazz and musical theater as well as a love for teaching theory, history and ear training. I was a member and officer in the Collegiate Music Educators National Conference and while at New...

About Me

I have been teaching music both in a k-8 public and charter school setting for 7 years and my private studio was started over 10 years ago. I am most passionate about helping my students discover their passion and working with their own interests to foster their abilities. That means I work with all styles of music. From Chopin to Led Zeppelin to Selena Gomez. I cater each lesson to the specific and unique needs and interests of my students. Music is Fun! I use my tools and experiences to help students reach their own goals, whether that be to perform professionally, to sing with their friends, compose their own music, etc...That means that some students will be very serious about their improvement and others will be somewhat casual, though all will be learning at the speed and temperament they like most. I've played the piano since I was 7, my trumpet playing began in middle school, I added guitar in high school, and the rest came with the bachelor's in music education I received...
