Saxophone with Nick Z.

I am a professional Saxophonist and Guitarist with a Bachelors degree in Commercial Music with an emphasis in performance. Being a saxophone player I also have experience doubling on Flute and Clarinet. I have played numerous events ranging from corporate events, to weddings, to playing original music with a band. I have a love for jazz, folk, and rock music. I believe every student can be taught to improvise while also developing the fundamentals needed to play music. I believe in tailoring each lesson to what the student wants, alongside with their current ability. I also believe in teaching some of the fundamentals needed to play music at a high level such as music theory, correct technique, and building up a knowledge of song repertoire. Students can expect to learn the songs they want to learn, while also learning the deeper aspects of the song such as the music theory and musical techniques involved in the song. Students will also learn standard songs in the genre they want that they may not know about, thus deepening and enriching their knowledge of music. As a professional performing artist I have knowledge of what is needed to perform music, and some skills that need to be developed in order to do so. I can teach students this in a fun, and relaxing manner. As a hobby I have built up a home studio where I record, mix, and master my own original music, and if students ever have any questions about this sort of thing I am more than happy to share my knowledge of this subject.
