Your Dream Music
Break Through Barriers and Discover Your Inner Genius
In my musical journey, I’ve been involved in many different types of performance situations. While playing cover band music and jazz standards can be a musically enjoyable experience, there is always something missing in the act of playing music that someone else wrote.
For creative musicians who have a desire to experience music fully, there’s a need to become innovative in the way we see music. And by innovative I don’t mean invent a smart phone. I mean, get into the core of what music is, and learn how to make everything we play our own. When we experience our favorite music, for instance, something in us binds to it, and sees it in our own likeness.
If you’re a serious musician that wants to write their own story in their music, then as a teacher I want to work with you to help with creating the best music possible.I teach students on any instrument, at levels ranging from intermediate to advanced and professional. My toolkit encompasses the creation of music from covering the basics of playing to recording critically acclaimed, expressive and artistic music. While my genre is commonly referred to as “Jazz”, its true nature is being an improvised art music.
With students I teach things that range from the minute details of performance - technique, hand independence, and tune learning - to becoming a more intuitive and expressive musician, and using the inspirations around your and inside of you to make the music you want to make, from every moment to the creation of full length studio albums.
