I’ve already stressed this, but I’m always starting at the same level my student is on. The last thing I want to so is overwhelm a beginner! Therefore, my lessons will be tailored to your learning needs and habits. I am always open to feedback, and I encourage students to stop and ask me questions! I’m very laid back. Sure, you could say I’m a hippie, but that doesn't mean I don’t have expectations. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Let's first slow it down and play it right
and musically. Let's also work on the more difficult parts of the pieces. How about playing for some else. Let make it musical. I love using selected solos to help in developing the, especially with band or piano accompaniment duets are fun and especially helpful in concentrating on the individual parts while blending and making the lines musical. A set time to best fit in the busy schedules of our lives is helpful
and keeping track of our daily practicing, coupled with conversations
on best practices on how to get the best results from the invested practice time.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Young beginners should have the basiic size to control their instrument. This includes body size and height to successfully handle and balance their
instrument. The student needs to have the strength to hold and support the instrument properly so as to be able to
control the correct needed armbiture. Very important is the hand and arm development to have control the instrument and push and maneuver the keys, valves, or slides that will be in use
Maturity and the commitment for home practice to facilitate the development that will come with the proper home preparation
When will I start to see results?
Positive progress will be quick in arriving IF the student is dedicated
To his outside the lesson practice and preparation A good relationship is critical for instrument technical for the teacher and student as well as the parents
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I was raised in a musical household and family so the motivation and desire to
Play was strongly there. My uncle was a wonderful Saxophonist who played
and recorded with good big bands was an inspiration and helped develop the thirst to play a woodwind.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My graduate degrees and training and
my talented and successful students There are many who have gone on to be successful musicians and teachers.
My experience as a college instructor and director and the many non musicians that experienced the joy of music in their life's Probably the most rewarding has been my directorship of my contemporary big band at the university with many performance at various venues, recordings and work with schools and public school students and band directors sharing musical moments and memories
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Sight reading is a complex skill that can only be developed with much time reading various and different sight reading material. It is a skill that separates the good player from the the
Excellent player
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A wonderful approach for a well rounded and comprehensive lesson routine would have some long toned
with perhaps vibrato workout. A run through of scales or arpeggios is a must, with sporadic metronomic assistance. The lesson material with all rhythmic, time and key atuness is important and attention to articulation
and dynamics continues to build musicality and student awareness for
more musical and creative approach to
Future sight reading and a generally more complex approach to the student's musical IQ.
