Overview:
Roman Gastelum is an acoustic & electric bassist, vocalist, lyricist and composer based in Los Angeles, CA. He went on to receive his Bachelor of Arts in Music Performance from Musicians Institute in Los Angeles. His influences range from Jazz, Hip-Hop, Funk, Soul, Country, Classical, Alternative, Indie, Rock and Pop music. Roman is active on the Los Angeles music scene today whether he is recording, performing live on stage, an enthusiastic private lesson instructor, a thoughtful lyricist, or composing artistically and commercially. Roman is the bassist, vocalist and lyricist of eclectic progressive rock project - Jigsaw Falling. Roman released his highly anticipated debut full length record “EQuilibrium” on 9.29.23. The music was composed and arranged in its entirety by Roman, with the project consisting of fellow musicians from the Los Angeles scene, including tenor saxophonist and engineer Brandon Wilkins, trumpeter Aaron Janik, guitarist Andy Waddell, keyboardist Scott Tibbs, drummer Jason Prushko, and Roman on bass (and sometimes vocals). The inspiration and style of the music is Roman’s interpretation of creating a true balance between both boom bap (Hip Hop), and bop/post-bop (Jazz), along with some influences from the UK and other various modern styles.
EXPERIENCE
I am very passionate about teaching and have always felt that it comes naturally to me. It’s not something that I treat as just a job. Whenever I see one of my students make progress or get inspired, I progress and become inspired as well. I have been teaching private lessons for about 8 years now and have experience teaching dozens of students from all different ages both male and female. I have seen very positive results in all of my students that put in forth their energies into practicing what I am teaching them. Whenever I have a new student that is struggling, I never give up on them as long as they don't give up on me. I always see an opportunity to figure out a way to have them breakthrough, which also allows me to become a better teacher.
METHODS USED
I typically start off by assessing if the student is a beginner, intermediate or advanced. Once the student's skill level has been assessed, a lesson plan will be formulated to best fit their needs. However, for students around beginner level, there is certain mandatory curriculum I teach in order for the student to have a solid fundamental understanding both on the instrument and for music in general. We will mostly focus on technique and theory, performance, as well as more creative and abstract musical aspects. When it comes teaching double bass, I teach the methods of Simandl, Petracchi and Rabbath which the student can purchase online.
LESSON STYLE
I provide a broad understanding of the instrument, with years of study to back it up, taking a conceptual, theoretical, technical and applicable approach, while stimulating the most important aspect: creativity. I get to the root of what the student needs to know eliminating excess, in order to speed up the learning process. Nothing originates from a strictly academic place, so I promote a natural free flowing environment, catered to the uniqueness of the individual in order to encourage study and inspire innovation. It is very rewarding to see a student fulfill their potential.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.

Ok

Are you sure that's your only availability? The more availability you easier it will be to arrange a teacher for you.
