Instruments:
I´m a teacher and performer living in New York for 5 years now. In 2008, I finished my Master´s in Music at New England Conservatory, in Boston. Since I moved to NY, I have had the opportunity to perform at the most important jazz clubs in the city, and collaborated with a myriad of incredible musicians. I have toured all over Europe, the US, Panama, Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Australia, among other contries. In NY, I´ve taught privately as well as in schools. I have also lead workshops and clinics all over the world. Teaching has always been a passion for me. I love it, because I´m always learning!
Instruments:
Passionate about sharing my love of the guitar with students of all ages, I’ve been teaching for more than 30 years. A trained Flamenco guitarist, I found, at the tender age of 7, my passion when I heard the world-renowned Flamenco guitarist Sabicas. Studying Flamenco since then, I began, during my teens, performing professionally and have had the honor of performing with such nationally known musicians as Billy Bang (legendary fiddle player), Willy Calhoun (Living Colour), Vassar Clements Band, Tom Chapin, Stanley Jordan, Buddy Miles, and Michael Powers. In high school, I enrolled in an Honors Musicianship class at the RiverDell, NJ, Senior High where I learned to read scores, conduct and identify multiple instruments, sight read, orchestrate scores and compose music. Following my true passion, I enrolled in the American Institute of Guitar (AIG), studying under the most sought after Flamenco guitar teacher for the past 20 years, Dennis Koster (author of Keys to Flamenco Guitar) and met the legendary Sabicas in person. At the same time, I began training in the Blues, educating myself on various styles and from various teachers, eventually going all the way to the tracks.
Instruments:
I studied music at William Paterson University, with a focus on music theory as well as the business side of the music industry. I began teaching in 2006, and it continues to be a wonderful journey. I enjoy inspiring, motivating, and encouraging each student to become acquainted with the instrument so he or she can become more skilled, technically sound, and creative. I've performed and recorded in many local Rock and Punk bands in NYC, and have performed many times throughout the Tri-State area. I'm skilled on the 6 string and 7 string electric guitar. I'm skilled at Piano and Electronic Synthesizers.
Instruments:
I am a highly motivated and enthusiastic instructor who loves giving people of all ages the gift of playing and performing music. I graduated from the State University of New York at Albany with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Jazz Guitar Performance in 2010. Music has been the biggest positive influence in my life and I have not been able to put the guitar down since I was 12 years old and first started to play. I am a working musician and you can usually find me gigging around the Tri-State Area with my band or with other various acts. If I am not gigging I am usually recording in my studio.
Instruments:
I have been teaching guitar since the age of 18. In my career I have had the good fortune of playing/touring with some of my guitar idols such as Albert King and Buddy Guy and also playing guitar for Grammy winning rock bands as well as my own band which was signed to Sony. I have retired from touring and now I'm an independent writer and consultant to all the major recording companies and work with Grammy winning artists and teach all levels of guitar. I am also a partner in a production company where I sign talent and develop and groom their skills with the ultimate goal of them making a living in the music business. When I'm not working in a Manhattan studio, I'm working in my home studio in Danbury, Connecticut where I write and rehearse and also teach my students. In my studio I have recording capability and a full back line of instruments etc. There's a photo in the photo gallery.
