About Michael D.
5.0
(1)
I am an teacher, composer, and arranger from Long Island, New York. I received my Bachelor of Music degree in Music Education from LIU Post (Long Island University). At LIU Post, I studied composition and orchestration with renowned educational composer Carl Strommen, trumpet with Brad Siroky, and conducting with Dr. James McRoy.
I have over 10 years of teaching experience. I have taught beginning 5th grade beginning band, middle school band, and high school band. and jazz band in both public and private schools! I have also worked with students with special needs both in school and privately.
Now, I live in central Florida with my wife, Jenn, and our rescue doggo, Bailey.
Due to the current global health pandemic, I am offering online lessons, with the intention of transitioning back into in-person lessons once it's safe to do so. I'm looking forward to working with you, and feel free to ask me any questions you may have!
