Saxophone Lessons in Bunnlevel, NC

Instruments: Voice Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet

For younger students who are a member of a school band or choir, I will spend a good portion of the time working out of whichever method book and other materials they use for class, in order to make the content in congruence with their other instruction. However, method books and beginner level ensemble repertoire only go so far because they are written to appeal to every instrument, not just one. Read More

I believe that it is important that every student progresses at their own individual pace; but I also believe that it is the goal of every student to have fun at what they're doing. Music is meant to be fun! I encourage my students to play to the best of their abilities at each lesson, and I acknowledge their achievements so that they can take pride in the progress they have made during our lessons.

Instruments: Saxophone

I've played in concert bands, numerous wind ensembles and solo recitals, performed with the FSU Marching Chiefs, and have had the privilege to receive the tutelage under the fine Patrick Meighan and Thomas Giles. My award and achievements may not go far (mainly because my degree was in Audio Production and Music Business) but I am more than aware of the diligence and finesse it takes to perfect and hone this craft.

During my years of teaching in East Lansing Michigan my band programs continually earned first and second division ratings at festivals. We took trips to Chicago every other year to see the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and to do a workshop at Northwestern University and my students received first and second division ratings at Solo and Ensemble both at the district and state levels. I was a judge for solo and ensemble and band festivals.

Instruments: Saxophone Music

My goal in teaching music is to give the student the tools and confidence to find their own voice. Understandably that concept requires students to have a level of passion and independents that not all of them will start off with, but I believe those things can be promoted by approaching the student-instructor relationship as a partnership. Yes, the instructor should lead, as they are the ones with the knowledge and experience. Read More

I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. In 1977, I graduated from the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Performance. In 1999, I was certified to teach Music K-12 by the state of North Carolina after attending NC Central University. Performing all over the US has been one of the greater experiences of my life as a musician, and I've had the opportunity to play in North Carolina, Virginia, Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Kansas, Alabama, Ohio, Florida, and Connecticut.
