I use both classics and popular songs to teach reading, theory, ear-training, and improvisation.

That helps with pacing the lessons and it pads the practice times. Read More

At 6, my parents enrolled me at the St. Louis Institute of Music, the premier school for being a music student. The school taught students K-12, and had an accredited 4 year college. Most of the teachers in the preparatory school had graduated from the college, and were well respected musicians in the city. Read More
