I love teaching! More than just someone to help students sing correctly, I really support and empower the people I work with. I want you to follow your dreams and if I can help by getting you singing better than ever before, that's great. I'm lucky in that I do what I love. I started as a choral conductor back in 1983 while in community college, then when to U.O.P. Conservatory of Music and got my bachelors in music education. Then I went to Northern Arizona University and got my masters in choral conducting. I have taught kindergarten through college, in public/private schools and colleges. I love working with all ages, seniors too.
Some of my students have gone on to successful careers on Broadway, as pop musicians, as award-winning teachers, or have been admitted to top music universities.
The jazz bug bit me hard in 1987, when I was accepted to the Banff Summer Jazz Institute, where I studied with Dave Holland, Kenny Wheeler, and Julian Priester. Since then I have played with some of the world's best jazz artists, including Ari Roland, John Marshall, and Joe Farnsworth. I will tour Russia with my trio in September of 2019!
If you want to get your jazz chops to a higher level, we can definitely do that, including improvisation and theory in jazz.
I grew up listening to Stevie Wonder so R&B is in my soul. I'm also a pretty decent pop musician/pianist. I had many years of teaching 'Classical' voice also...and am comfortable teaching Italian art songs.
I look forward to working with you--David
