Saxophone Lessons & Classes in Glenham - Bedford

I've played saxophone for about 18 years. I enjoy teaching all levels of saxophone students! Saxophone is a fun and versatile instrument.

Professional saxophonist, trained at the nations top music schools, I teach students of all levels and ages, whether just beginning or an experienced player. I have a great amount of experience in both classical and jazz and have been playing for about 17 years myself.

In addition to helping students establish solid fundamentals, I can help you reach your goals, whether that be through working on classical solo repertoire, jazz and improvisation, band music, preparing for a competition or audition, and more. I try to make lessons fun and enjoyable for the student.

If you don't live near me, online lessons are a great alternative to in person lessons. I have had success teaching many students of various abilities and ages throughout the country and abroad online!

As a professional performer and educator, I combine my experience in both fields to provide the most well rounded education for each of my students. I cater each lesson to the students' specific needs. Being a saxophone player first and foremost, I may be biased, but I think it is one of the most enjoyable instruments to learn and play!

I will customize your lessons to suit your learning style. I will combine music theory with your goals to develop a lesson plan.
