While living in New York, Memphis Jazz Workshop founder Stephen L. had the privilege of meeting and befriending several talented young musicians. Not long after meeting these young musicians, Lee noticed that they were operating at a higher skill level at a very young age compared to their counterparts. They were incredible performers who were hanging with jazz legends at world-renowned jazz clubs, and most were enrolled in performing arts schools. Read More

My teaching style is fairly relaxed, a student needs to enjoy the lessons or we are really wasting our time. There is no reason for music lessons to be dreary, almost all of my students enjoy their lessons and have no problem coming back week after week to be challenged again. For advanced students I really want to focus on the music you really want to play. If its your dream to play light classics for friends and family, then we will work on that. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
Greetings future student! I have composed, performed, taught, and produced music for 25 years now. One way I continue to experience the joy of music is by passing along what I have learned. I am currently the Pianist for Saint Michael Catholic Church and have extensive experience in many facets of music and the challenges we face - both in performance and development of musicianship as well as understanding. I don't live vicariously through my students. Read More

I like to teach and talk about the songs and styles that were taught to me by my father when I was just getting in to music and guitar. The first thing I remember learning were "Hey Joe" by Hendrix, which is actually simpler than most people would expect. The basic standards of guitar were taught to me when I was first learning, and that's what excites me to teach to the next generation of guitarists. Read More

My desire is for all of my students to know and learn proper technique. For beginner students, I will start with theory basics that are foundational to learning and can be directly applied to their instrument. Once they gain a basic understanding of the fundamentals, I will introduce more complete solo repertoire that they can begin to work on. Depending on the interests, learning desires, and level of the student, I will move forward with what interests them, though I may require some classical selections as I believe it to be a style foundational to a great musician.

Instruments: Piano
I am good at combine technique and music performance together to teach students. Because I believe that any technique are serving for music, when I teach student, I will tell and teach them why we use this technique to play this music section. For beginner, I will teach them how to build up strong finger and how to complete relax which is very important. These two factors are dependant on each other. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Well, I chose guitar because it was the primary instrument for the music I listened to. I tried playing clarinet in school band, but it was not an instrument that could hold my interest at all. Also, my mother loved listening to guitar and in particular flamenco music. This and the music I listened to guided me to no other instrument. I also tried playing drums, mandolin, and flute. These were very interesting to me because I have always enjoyed all types of music. However, I will always be drawn to string instruments.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
The accomplishments I am most proud of is my teaching and performing. My time on the stage when I was young gave me a chance to perform and actually make money as a musician. At the time I joined bands, there were a lot of places to play that were just to be seen -not many actually paid. A brand new student, a child with autism, and my own children are truly my greatest accomplishments.. My youngest son learned guitar from me and went on to be in a well-known local band. He did some recording. I have learned something as simple as teaching can inspire a student to go as far as they want to. In the end, seeing the joy in the face of my students will always be my greatest accomplishment.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
As I said in the last question, my son, for one, went on to have a number of awards locally and record. Also, some of my students in Colorado, have actually become studio musicians. Even though my daughter does not play guitar, she has a great love for music and through her piano and singing has made a CD that is available online. My daughter was accepted into a music program called The Contemporary Music Center which is now in Nashville, Tn. At the time, it was located on the East Coast. This was a semester long program where talented college students learned the music business.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master is free-style improvisation. This I believe, can only be taught to a certain point. After that, an incredible amount of practice and God given talents has to come through. Through my years of experience with bands and teaching, I feel that I am very capable of seeing this ability in students. So, at this point, there are certain exercises that can be taught to further the gifted musician with these abilities. It is a great feeling to teach students the basics and watch them evolve. I always want my students to be better than what I am and never quit learning and never quit playing.
