Saxophone Lessons Southwest

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Organ, Synthesizer

I have played the piano for over thirty years, and picked up the saxophone in middle school (almost twenty-five years ago). I was a band-nerd through high school and went on to get my undergraduate degree in music from a vibrant musical school in Nashville, Tennessee. I have played in churches, for theater productions, for weddings, funerals, receptions, parties... you name it. I bring many genres and styles to the table and can help you understand how each one works to adapt for any opportunity. Read More

I also help with the psychology of music learning and performing which is often overlooked. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Clarinet

Understanding the student's interest would be my priority goal. Helping students not just playing the instrument, but also loving it, so they will cherish the time with their instruments. Having fun while learning music is always my target in teaching music. Students and parents are welcome to provide the music they would love to learn. That should keep their attention in having fun. At the same time, other-focused material would be assigned, so the students will maintain a great foundation in playing music. Read More
