Piano Lessons in Jefferson, OR

Instruments: Piano Cello

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing a student develop a passion for music! Therefore, it is my job to have each student progress at their own pace. I hold recitals twice a year as a checkpoint to see how students have progressed and to have them practice performance. These recitals help motivate the students to practice and give acknowledgement to all their hard work and accomplishments. This acknowledgment is what drives them to work even harder and progress even further therefore leading closer to their dreams as a musician. Read More

I began teaching music lessons to my friends and peers who were beginning to take up new instruments(piano, bass, & guitar) when I was in middle school. At that time, I had developed a strong foundation in piano, begun learning trumpet in school, and self-taught myself the guitar. In high school, I taught younger students throughout the school district private lessons in trumpet through an organization called Arts Without Boundaries - many of these students took lessons with me for multiple years.

My name is Evan, I am a huge British comedy fan, and I am a constant, evolving advocate of music. Classical music is my specialty, but I believe music crosses much more than disciplines, and I encourage that mindset in my teaching. I recently received my Master's degree from McGill University in Vocal Performance; while there, I was fortunate enough to work professionally through the Opera de Montreal and through the Opera America conference held in Montreal this past year.

Instruments: Piano Violin Flute Music Keyboard

Lessons are broken up into two parts: Technique and repertoire. It's important to build up proper technique to prevent injury and to refine skill. I like students to work on three pieces at a time (It sounds scary, but is totally manageable.) If I feel the student can handle more music, I will adjust. The first piece is at the student's skill level. This is so the student can accomplish the task at hand relatively quickly without a lot of wood shedding. Read More
