About Chris L.
5.0
(6)
I have studied music for 35 years. Piano was my first instrument and I have taken classical lessons from an early age and studied jazz piano for 14 years. I play guitar at the same level as piano. I play jazz, classical, flamenco and rock guitar; acoustic, electric and 9-string electric. I have studied at University of North Texas, Musicians institute and have a bachelor's of music from UNM. I have a certification in early childhood education and love to teach children, as well as adults of all ages.
*** Lesson Details ***
I am very patient and flexible. I work with the student to design curriculum that is exciting and engaging for their individual level. Students enjoy studying with me because they can progress quickly if they practice and because I am easy to talk to and work with.
*** Studio Equipment ***
The In-Studio lessons are taught in the music room in the home which includes an 88 key weighted keyboard, 5 guitars, 3 amps
* Equipment ***
I expect students to have their own instruments that they practice on during the week, a metronome, a tuner and the music books they are working on.
*** Specialties ***
I specialize in jazz, rock and classical music. I usually allow the students or their parents to choose their method books based on their interests and goals.

My son has been taking banjo lessons with Chris for several months, and we've both been incredibly impressed. Chris is patient, encouraging, and highly skilled at explaining even the most complex techniques in a way that's easy to understand. My son is making great progress and enjoying his learning.
Highly recommend!

Really really good teacher. Very patient , kind , and gives a good foundation musically to build upon. I started lessons only knowing a few concepts and he has helped me develop in many areas over a short time. He's really good at gauging your skill level and helping you to develop and obtain your goals. I've gone to him with percussion + fingerstyle songs and even african american gospel that I wanted to put onto the guitar. He has such a strong foundation that regardless of the genre he can help you learn the music that you want to play. I would definitely recommend his lessons to all skill sets, genres, ages (kids-adult). I am really grateful, definitely give him a try he's a really great teacher!
