    About Wilfred G.

    I have 10 years playing experience in Jazz, Rock, and Country bands as a guitarist, electric bassist and a saxophonist. As a guitarist and bassist, I have played in pit bands for shows like "Footloose" and "A Very Potter Musical" and gigging with smaller bands in my local area. I am also a composer and arranger, having written and performed songs and instrumental pieces for award shows and classrooms. With a strong blend of contemporary and classical styles, I can make sure that you get started on your musical journey the right way, with strong fundamental knowledge and all while still having fun! I can teach both contemporary styles with lead sheets and chord charts and classical styles using full musical notation to make the student as versatile as they can be in today's musical economy. An avid learner, I am currently pursuing my Bachelors in Music Education and Saxophone Performance at the University of South Florida as well as taking online courses in eLearning and Online course development. Let me help you be the best musician and person you can be!
