Secaucus, NJ Saxophone Lessons

Lesson subjects depend on the individual student and their goals. Typically we address issues such tone, breathing, technique, reading and repertoire. Music theory is also incorporated during the lessons.

I've been teaching saxophone for 20 years and my students have gone on to the State level Band Auditions and won multiple times. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to make a decent sound, play scales, arpeggios and simple tunes, and as time goes on you'll be able to play popular tunes solo and with accompaniment of piano or band. I specialize in classical, jazz and klezmer style, typically use best published books, and have the renovated, quiet and spacious studio, music stands, audio equipment. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

I have developed a teaching method that is efficient and creative, and is backed by over thirty years of professional performing experience. In the past fifteen years, I have taught continuously at several music schools in Germany. In my classroom, I approach music lessons with uncompromising attention to the goals of my students, their abilities and style. While focused on rigorous study of instrumental technique and music theory,

Since I started playing at age 11, I have been fortunate enough to study with some prolific musicians including: UNT sax professor Brad Lelei, Grammy nominated saxophonist Myron Walden, and world renowned bass player Reggie Workman. I currently study saxophone at the New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in NYC. In my lessons we'll have fun while focusing on your goals. Through practice and the materials I provide, you will notice a dramatic increase in your musical abilities. See you soon!

I have studied both Classical and Jazz saxophone in Europe and here with some of the best teachers in the world. I completed my Bachelor’s in Performance from Berklee College of Music, where I graduated Summa Cum Laude. In addition, I have a Masters in Music from the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University and over 9 years of experience teaching music. Since every student is different and has specific goals, my lessons are carefully prepared so that you can learn in a fast pace!

We will practice core matters such as sound, technique, creating your own personality on the instrument, transcriptions, improvisation, etc.

I am a professional Jazz Saxophonist and Composer who is accepting beginner through advanced students! I am incredibly adaptable to each students individual needs, developing a unique lesson plan as we progress each week. The end goal for all of my students is to improve your technique, note reading and music theory abilities, as well as learning your favorite songs! I specialize in jazz music and improvisation, but teach anything from Rock to R&B. Let's get started!

I am a performer, teacher, and woodwind specialist based in New York City. As a woodwind doubler I have been studying woodwind instruments for over 10 years and currently play flutes, oboes, clarinets, saxophones, and world flutes professionally. When I'm not performing in orchestras for musical theatre or giving solo recitals I love teaching.

I've taught students from all different backgrounds and skill levels and my students all show significant growth because I cater my lesson plans to fit the goals and needs of each student.

When students take lessons with me, they learn both how to play their instruments and how to have fun doing it! Music is food for the soul, and learning how to make it can and should be an uplifting experience.

For beginners, we will work out of a method book to establish basic foundational skills such as developing an embouchure, rudimentary saxophone technique, reading music, and more. From there, we can delve deeper into the worlds of classical saxophone, jazz saxophone, or any other style that we want.
