When I was ten years old I heard Led Zeppelin I for the first time and knew instantly that I wanted to be a musician. I went on to pick up the guitar and drums and have yet to put them down. Through many different platforms (bands, jazz ensembles, University, radio, solo play, teaching) I have always found a way to make music part of my everyday life. Since my senior year of high school I have taught folks of all ages and helped them achieve their unique and individual goals. With a relevant, relationship-based curriculum, I wish to help you fulfill your ambition and learn how to have the most fun you've ever had.

Hello! I am a professional working drummer with over 20 years of performing and teaching experience. My current band, Eight To The Bar, has been the winner of Best Band Connecticut for the past 5 years straight.

Hello! My name is Bill and I have been immersed in music my entire life and have had the opportunity to remain a full time performer/teacher for the last 15 years. I have performed and recorded with various artists throughout the entire U.S. and Canada and continue to keep an active schedule both as a performer and as a private instructor.
As an instructor, I look at each student as an individual, with a unique set of goals, and design a lesson plan that is both fun and informative in achieving these goals. Most importantly, I want to have my students playing music! Regardless of their style or musical tastes, I seek to provide each student with a path that will allow them to participate in the music that they love.

I love to sing, and I love to teach. Private lessons are a great place for both. Whether you're already passionate about music, or just dipping your feet in the water, I can personalize lessons to meet your needs. For me, seeing a student grow as a musician is a reward in itself. But the biggest rewards should be yours: a stronger voice, a deeper understanding of music, a whole body involved in making music, an enjoyable effort, and a growing independence to know how to handle musical and technical difficulties on your own.

My background:
I am an experienced tenor vocalist, with over 10 years of private vocal study, a BA in music from Williams College, and further study in vocal pedagogy with a Longy professor.

I have taught voice on faculty at Camp Encore/Coda, music composition with Classroom Cantatas, a variety...

i've been studying voice and theatre since I was about 14 years ago. Broadway has always been my first love and when I was young I wanted to be a Broadway star. As I grew up and my voice started to mature I found a love for Opera but it doesn't really matter what I'm doing as long as I'm singing and performing! Because of my lengthy experience in Musical Theatre, Opera, Jazz and the Classical Voice I find these experiences to help my students grow in several different areas.

I was born in the capital of Bulgaria, Sofia. Since I started playing violin at the age of 6, my journey in the world of music brought me to different places and I had the chance to study with wonderful teachers. I have a Master Degree in Violin Performance form Boston University, where I studied with Professor Yuri Mazurkevich. I am currently actively performing as an orchestra member with various orchestras in New England, such as Nashua Symphony Orchestra, Atlantic Symphony Orchestra, New Bedford Symphony Orchestra. In my experience as a violin student I learned a lot. And now I want to share my knowledge with you. You may be an adult or a child, a beginner or an advanced player, I would be happy to teach you.
