Lesson Details

I offer a wide pallet of musical options. Whether teaching guitar, piano, or cello, I aim to provide a well rounded approach to the performance and understanding of music. Context is everything, so after we cover the basics, we can move in a direction of your liking. Whether you want to sit and compose by yourself, or let loose on stage in front of screaming fans, we will get you there! In the first 3 to 6 months, we will cover basic music theory, technique, rhythm, and basic improvisation. ... After that, we can continue in any (and all) of these subjects, and begin to introduce ear training, the most essential element of your musical education. Overall, I want to have fun, and make sure you get what YOU want out of your lessons.

About

Hello! I believe that music is something everyone can do: it can be played alone or in pairs (and trios, quartets,etc). Playing music is extremely rewarding. It's about discovering your potential, and having fun doing it! Having played music for 25 years, and teaching for 12, I have experience as a performer, composer, and producer. I grew up playing cello before switching to guitar, and graduated from New England Conservatory of Music with a BA in jazz performance. Most recently, I moved ... to Nashville where I am currently training to be a Registered Piano Technician.
