Music Lessons in Ojus, FL

Instruments: Guitar

My experience goes back all the way to middle school. The first time I saw somebody playing a guitar I was surprised. I couldn't believe the melody that came out of it, and just how good it seemed the person playing was feeling. At the time I was about 11 years of age, when my mom bought my first guitar. I started playing very basic songs. Paint it Black by the Rolling Stones was the first song I learned, and I can remember like it was yesterday how hard it was for me to get used to carrying the guitar and the feeling of the strings in my fingers.

Instruments: Voice

My teaching experience has all been one-on-one coachings in different styles such as Musical Theater, opera, oratorio and pop styles. I can really hear the potential in each voice and have been through every stage that a singer can possibly imagine. I started off as someone who had absolutely no sense of pitch with less than an octave of usable range and over the past three years have now gotten to the point of riffing, chest-mixing in the fifth octave, whistle tones... etc. Read More

My journey with music began at the age of five with some of the most inspirational teachers. At that time I never imagined that music would not only become my livelihood, but also that my passion for playing and teaching would grow so strong. I started studying music at Henryk Wieniawskis School of Music at age of 7 where I spent another 12 years learning piano, trumpet, vocal, music theory and related to music subjects. Read More

Instruments: Bass Guitar

For beginning students I like to focus attention on fundamental technique on both hands, making sure that they use the correct finger positioning on the bass. As they advance, the student will begin to know the whole fretboard through scales and arpeggios (in all keys) so the student knows where all the notes are in the instrument. For intermediate to advanced students I recommend books like "Connecting Chords with Linear Harmony" by Bert Ligon, "Fingerboard Harmony for Bass" by Gary Willis, "Funk Bass Fills" by Anthony Vitti, "The Latin Bass Book" by Oscar Stagnaro and "The Essential Jaco Pastorius" by Jaco Pastorius.

I believe that every human being is unique, and that uniqueness affects the way one learns. This is why I do not have a method that I use for each of my students.
