About Me

the jerry story began in waxahachie, texas in the summer of 1960. growing up in a very musical family and showing a strong interest early on, jerry began formally studying music at the age of nine. at fifteen, he borrowed his younger brother's cort acoustic guitar and began teaching himself by studying old piano scale books and playing rock tunes by ear. throughout high school and college, jerry played a range of styles (everything from freddie green to frank gambale) in jazz and rock ...

Lesson Details

My lessons are divided into segments. First, a short drill of fundamentals (this can include scales, arpeggios, exercises, etc.). Second, a short segment of reading. Third, the study of a piece of music (usually in the favored style chosen by the student). This third section of the lesson is very important as the focus is on the practical application of the fundamentals previously studied. Fourth, a short segment involving improvisation (again, typically in the style of music chosen by the student).
