Beginner, Intermediate, AdvancedAbout Steven G.
Since I first stepped foot in Los Angeles seven years ago, I've devoted myself to pursuing a career of musical passion and excellence. I work as a composer, producer, and recording artist who specializes in writing music for film, television, games, and other multimedia experiences. I believe in infusing fresh, innovative techniques with an old-school attention to detail and devotion to the craft. Along the way, I've kindled a love for music education, and have profoundly enjoyed helping along students of all ages and backgrounds in their budding musical journeys.
I began studying classical piano privately at an early age, and spent four years at the University of Miami studying under Academy Award nominee Chris Boardman, and graduated with a degree in Music Composition & Production and a double minor in Music Business and Creative American Music. After many years of teaching private lessons, I've moved to Santa Clarita to establish my own teaching studio in Saugus. I teach piano, guitar, composition, and music production to students at any proficiency level. I am always on the lookout to work with new people who are just as excited about creating music as I am. I look forward to meeting you and starting our musical journey together!

Steven is wonderful! He really takes time to make sure I understand everything. Would highly recommend him

Stephen is amazing ! What a nice , easy go with the flow knowledgeable patient dude ! So happy to be learning from him. I’m excited for tomorrow !

Steve is a pleasure having around. He is patient, he inspired my kids and managed them well during the lesson. Steve's knowledge and love for music is motivational.

Although today was my son's first lesson with Steven, I gave him 5 stars because my son really enjoyed the lesson and also liked him a lot. From the start, Steven was calm and very very patient. He made my son comfortable and worked around his pace and level.

Steven was wonderful, my granddaughter was so happy that he is her teacher. She is looking forward to her next lesson on Saturday.

Steven was knowledgeable and patient
Will call on his services again

Today was my first lesson and I immediately felt comfortable working with Steve. He is very friendly and easy going and I have no reason to doubt that my lessons will be laid back yet also very educational. I felt at ease with my questions and he is good at teaching what he wants to convey. I have every reason to think he's a great teacher and I'm looking forward to my next lesson next week.

He is very patient with me and a wonderful teacher, guiding right track for my progress and less ones.

My son Benjamin really liked his first lesson and wants to go on with the rest of the lessons. He is 12 yard old and he already knows clearly who he wanted as a teacher. I think Steven was a good choice. So far so good..

Very respectful of my concerns and comments. Always attentive to flow of my basic/limited technology.

great first lesson

Lessons with Steven are great! He was adept at assessing my current level and get me on the right track - and I have been improving faster than I ever could on my own. Give him a shot, you won't regret it!
