Looking to try something new and enjoyable? Need a bit of one-on-one guidance from a reliable professional? Sometimes all it takes to really understand the material is a considerate piano and saxophone instructor who knows how to teach at your pace. I have work with students of all ages and experience since 2006 when I first started working with Maryland Parks & Recreation. I have also played in many different groups including the Washington Redskins Marching Band. I bring a depth of professional experience and knowledge to those who are eager to expand their minds, talents, and skills. I offer quality, personalized service at affordable prices. Contact me to see how I can be of service to you.

We will work on left-hand and right-hand technique as well as music reading skills.

Developing our ears is a crucial part of nurturing our musicianship. Having the ability to hear specific aspects of music allows us to strengthen our understand and appreciation of music.

Like my trombone lessons, ear training lessons will start by solidifying (or reviewing) fundamentals. Once established, we will build upon those fundamental skills to further develop our musical ear.

Young artists who aspire to elevate their musical education in the future should expect to have a solid grasp of music theory. A foundation of music theory not only benefits those seeking formal musical education, but also contributes to greater familiarity and learning potential in sight-reading, performance, musical interpretation and a scholarly understanding of musical score.

Students who select these lessons can expect enrichment in theory fundamentals like identifying and labeling chord structures, roman numerals in chordal analysis, harmonic analysis, and score analysis. I structure these lessons as taught by the Music Theory Department at Juilliard, and have extended experience tutoring students in this subject within the School.

I'm actually a violin teacher, and I also have other link for my violin studio teaching. I also have student who took lesson mainly to get theory boosted up, while also taking lesson. I'd love to have my student not only good on playing, but they also really understand musicality, and speaking about musicality, we all need to understand the structure of music. that being said, we need theory. I teach theory as an integration with my studio lesson. But i'm also down to teach pure music theory alone. I'm flexible with these. Just send me message - then we'll set up things onwards :) Cheers!
