Glen Burnie, MD Upright Bass Lessons

Proper posture for playing the bass in a standing position. Scale progressions. Solo techniques, hand exercises to improve playing
Ability. Difference in hand position for using a French or German bow.

The main focus is on technique (bowing, fingerings) while covering any classical repertoire. I can also cover jazz, rock/pop if the student wishes.

Classical music-focused, fun and relaxed environment, experienced teacher with top conservatory background

I focus on musicality when I teach any instrument. With the bass, that stretches from playing with strong tone and staying in tune all the way to thumb position vibrato and advanced bowings. I'm a classical player but I include jazz, folk, and rock in my lessons.

Let's work on left hand technique (positions, fingering choices, vibrato), right hand technique (bow hold, articulation, plucking), music reading skills, and learn how to create musical phrases.

I have a masters in double bass performance. I have performed in orchestras, jazz bands, and solo recitals across the country.

My students can expect a loving, supportive, and encouraging atmosphere to learn a difficult instrument. We will go through the basics of hand shapes, learn how to navigate the neck with scales, and tunes that make the upright bass approachable.

Want to learn how to play the upright as well as the electric bass! I can gladly assist with both! I love each instrument equally and would be more than willing to teach you the ways around the upright bass.
