Master of Music (M.M.) Jazz Piano Performance & Contemporary Media
Learn to improvise and use your ears from a gigging musician with 15+ years experience
I've worked with students from aged 5 to 85 and understand that every student has their own unique way of learning. I like to mold each lesson to their needs and interests while also providing the regimen I believe is necessary to their musical growth. I'm a gigging musician in Los Angeles and received my undergraduate degree from the College-Conservatory of Music and my masters from the Eastman School of Music, both in jazz piano performance.

About Max G.
5.0
(1)
I want to help you become more confident using your ears, improvising, and playing the repertoire that inspires you! I am always trying to hone my skills as a teacher by identifying the best ways each student learns and adapting my teaching methods to fit them. I grew up jamming with my family and knew right away that I wanted to be a musician just like my dad. I was classically trained and competed regularly in piano competitions throughout the Midwest before attending the College-Conservatory of Music in Cincinnati as a jazz piano major. Right after graduation, I moved to New York to earn my Masters of Music in jazz piano performance at the Eastman School of Music.
