Guitar with scott m.

Scott EXPERIENCE: Started playing guitar at age 8, took lessons at Carroza Music for 4 yrs, then Bramson’s music for 8 yrs, also private instruction and briefly with jazz guitar legend Chuck Wayne at the Westchester Conservatory of Music. Total years playing guitar 40! I have recorded 7 Cds including World beat, Cardio Kickboxing, Christian, Guitar Style Sampler, been spotlighted in Guitar Player magazine and done session work and recording with other artists. I have also played in bands playing venues in NY and CT MUSICIANS I HAVE PLAYED WITH Ali Ryerson-flute (played with Pavarotti and Carnegie hall) Pete Velasquez-percussion (Santana and Barefoot) Steve Rossi-keyboards ( Gary US Bonds) Ira Shickman-bass ( Chaka Kahn and Ace Frehely) Blake Hepburn-drums ( Atlantic Star) Lynwood Bates-bass ( Shalamar) Terry Miller-bass (Robben Ford) Terry Hanks-saxaphone ( Elvin Bishop) Steve Bergman-keyboard ( Paul Horn) Weber Drummond-keyboard ( Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter) Helcio Melito-percussion (inventor of the Bossa Nova) COMMENTS: My strong point as a teacher and player is my experience with a wide variety of styles of music and musical situations including being on stage. I specialize in lead guitar for blues, rock, southern rock *** Lesson Details *** I like my students to have a good working knowledge of the fret board right away and then begin use of chords and playing songs and having FUN while doing so!!! Then as they begin to progress learning chord theory, scales, some basic music theory, improvisation, soloing, advanced lead guitar,recording tricks and tips, and stage presence. I basically tailor suit the lessons too the individual based on age, experience and learning goals and create a positive and educational experience for both of us.
