Music Performance Lessons in Rappahannock Academy. Amazing Teachers.

I track multiple instruments; piano, voice, and organ as well as Ukulele. I have a wide range of performance experience. I can provide my students with a wide range of learning experience. I have a broad experience in both classroom and private study. I am interested in giving my students such a love for music that it will become a meaningful part of their lives for years to come.

Been playing piano since age 5, flute since 4th grade and much more music encompassing a lot in the classical field, some jazz and other genres as well. I have a Master's degree in wind conducting and am fully capable of teaching any standard subject in music. I am also an experienced accompanist.

Experienced guitarist/songwriter/producer of the Maryland rock band Master Sword offering lessons to beginner through intermediate players. Learn music theory (including chords and scales from basic to advanced), how to craft songs, ear training, and more. Focus is mainly on rock, pop, and metal guitar performance.

Take your playing from bedroom jamming to a successful and financially stable group or solo act with advice on social media marketing, which financial decisions are most worth it, and building a fanbase (my band currently has over 20,000 followers across social media.)

Experienced playing in front of many different audiences, i.e.
big audiences with Holland America Line, from 75 to 1000 people in the audience. Dealing with other musicians and the audience is as important as the performance itself, at times.

On the road with American Entertainment Productions,
our group of eight (8) played in front of high-school, middle school and Convention size audiences.
How to play and not lose focus playing your instrument is key.
You are there to perform and share your musical talent.

At different churches, some places were over 300 - 1000, depending on the size of the building, or course.

At lessons, we can talk how to play, read music for musical performance, and what to do after the performance.

What makes a piece of music speak? How does it reach people? How does it touch peoples lives? These are a few of the questions I have explored throughout my years of performing. I can help you perform in a way that not only answers these questions, but will help you communicate your individuality and understanding of music.

I focus on vocal tone, quality, technique, and performance ability. It's about strengthening your skills to be able to enjoy your voice while having the freedom to do what you've always wanted. You will get out of these lessons as much as you put in.
