I have spent my focus in my own study on performance for many years, while simultaneously developing my own personal teaching style. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Jazz Guitar Performance from the University of North Texas and I have performed in numerous states throughout the US (including a stint working in the showband for Princess Cruises). My unique way to connect with the student's musical needs comes from my emphasis on playing more than theory (at least initially) as I believe that while theory is essential, it should be a supplement, not the main course. Theory should follow practice, this seems to be the best formula for success on any instrument.

Hello Students and Parents!

I am Andrew B. I have taught professionally, from ages 5 to 75, for almost 10 years. I have been playing music since I was very young. I was that infant sitting at the piano trying to play what ever melodies came into my head. I caught the bug for guitar at the age of 13 and my life has been about music ever since.

While I consider jazz to be my home base, I am deeply rooted in the blues. I try to feel the essence of the blues in every style I approach. That is to say, I look to find the deeper understanding of that style or piece of music.

Over the years I have studied and taught many styles of music on guitar and bass, including: jazz, blues, pop, rock, metal, funk, hip hop, reggae, country, gospel, and classical. I also teach songwriting, theory, voice, and double bass.

Just this last year I have had the opportunity to share the stage with several great musicians. Some of these include: Dana Murray (Wynton Marsalis, Jimmy Witherspoon,...

Hi there, thanks for checking out my page! My name is Cory and I'm a professional musician born and raised in NYC. I've been playing guitar for about 10 years, and in that time music has become my utmost passion in the world. I've always listened to and appreciated music; for the joy, excitement, emotion, intellectual value and pure entertainment in can give to people. Music is a universal language that brings people of any and all kinds together, and just as much as listening to and performing music, I love teaching. I've been teaching guitar and bass guitar for a number of years now, and sharing my knowledge, experience, and love of music has increased by devotion to the art even more than I thought possible. I love guiding a beginner along on their first steps to discovering their musical selves, reigniting an old flame in those who have put down their instrument for a while a seek to pick it back up, and help to hone and refine the skills of the more experienced musicians who...

Hello and welcome to my profile!
I have been teaching guitar for over a decade and love doing it. Before we get into how you can succeed as a guitarist here is a little background about me. I grew up in a small town and began playing guitar at age 12. I was taught a few chords from friends and tried to learn songs from tabs on the Internet. After a couple years I realized the need for formal training, so I began taking classical guitar lessons. I was introduced to formal music instruction and my abilities really blossomed. I became enamored with the guitar, and music as a whole, and decided to pursue music as a profession. I attended University of Colorado at Denver and received a Bachelors in Jazz Guitar performance.
Throughout college I taught guitar in various settings. I developed a weekend guitar program for Aurora Public Schools, conducted jazz clinics at Overland Trail Middle School, and was the Summer Music Director for Mracheck Middle School. I always held a...

Music has always been a big part of my life and I really enjoy giving the gift of music to other people. I began teaching guitar lessons during high school after a family friend asked me if I could show him a few things. From there I developed my technique as a teacher and my roster of students grew through word of mouth before I went off to college.

EDUCATION

I attended New York University in the fall of 2004, majoring in Music Composition at the Steinhardt School of Education. I studied privately with Dr. Joseph Church, who was the Music Director for the Lion King on Broadway, as well as The Who's Tommy. He was a true mentor and helped me hone my skills as a songwriter, lyricist and vocalist.

During my time at NYU I spent a year teaching group guitar lessons at the Edgies Teen Center in Lower Manhattan. In this low-income neighborhood it was really important to give my students an outlet to express themselves in a positive way by learning the importance of music....
