    About John D.

    Want to study the same warm-ups, the same drills, and the same music everyone else does? - THEN DON'T CALL ME! My lesson plans are unique to every student! My 35 years of experience allows me to rely on a successful history of music instruction. I base lessons plans, curriculum, and personal instruction on the history, interests, needs, and capabilities of each student! At present, my focus is on piano and voice instruction! I would love to speak with you!Let's discuss YOUR personal goals and objectives! Call me - even if we decide not to work together - I think I can help! I do stay rather busy, as I also serve as Music Minister at Faith Presbyterian Church - so if you call and get my message machine - PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE! I will call you back. Thank you!
