I believe the single most important part of a musician's work begins in the ear. Building a foundation in aural training, and understanding what you're hearing, will allow any student to then approach an instrument with clarity and patience.

I create my own lesson plans with each student's needs in mind, in order to help them follow their personal path to musical success. Read More
