My father even had a music studio in the house. I would watch my father’s band rehearse and listen to many of his music students’ lessons. I was always exposed to top musicians, as my family attended many concerts. I especially enjoyed meeting the musicians in the bands, since my Dad was their colleague. As a result, I always studied with esteemed music teachers. I attended and obtained both of my degrees from top rated, prestigious universities. Read More

For the Clarinet, I typically use The Hendrickson Method book series with supplemental books on the side to enhance their various levels.  For flute and saxophone, I will evaluate based on the student's level.

I also encourage the students to bring music from their band class and/or other solos they may be working on for festivals, competitions, or auditions. Read More
