Saxophone Lessons Brooklyn County, NY

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Trumpet, Trombone, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Drums, Bass Guitar, Mandolin, Recorder, Euphonium, Tuba, Mallet Percussion, Orchestral Percussion, Oboe, Conga, Latin Percussion

It is not necessary, however, to learn chords or grooves specifically from a book for these instruments. Depending on the desired style, there may not be much use of notated music, guitar tabliture, etc. But as already stated, this does not excuse a good foundation in reading music and understanding music theory. For more advanced players (who would most likely be percussionists if working with me, though I am willing to work with any instrument at a more advanced level), we would work out of books I and the student(s) find fitting for their skill level.

I think it's important that it has to be fun to be interesting, and the other way around, only then can the student reach their full potential as a musician. At the core my goal is for the student to improve, and enjoy how wonderful it is to play music. Read More
