Especially for upright bass, technique and proper muscle use is of utmost importance. Ensuring a student will not injure themselves immediately or with continued practice would be covered first especially for beginners. After proper technique and comfort is established, we learn scales, sight reading, solo or duet pieces selected by ability, as well as any thing the student shows interest in learning. Also important to me is instrument maintenance! Cleaning your bass, bow hair, and properly humidifying the instrument. Read More

I will often start beginning students with George Vance method books, emphasizing sound setup, facility, notation reading and musicality. With more advanced students, we will evaluate their tastes and experience to determine the best music for study.

A positive attitude and a thorough practice regimen will go a long way in addition to our lessons. Read More

I teach guitar, bass, ukelele, and banjo. Read More

From there, well look at the music that inspires you and craft a strategy to increase your comfort and proficiency in that area. Read More
