Music Lessons in Arlington, TN

Instruments: Bass Guitar

For children and adults alike, I teach from the Ed Friedland Bass Method Book 1. It was actually the book that I started out on and Friedland is a well done studio and live bassist. He is just as amazing on bass guitar as he is on double bass. Once the student has progressed from that book then I move on to sight seeing with the student. After this then I move on to transribing basslines and meldodic lines. Read More

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

I like to keep hours at an hour, but I understand every student has different needs. Every lesson will begin with a warmup and the understanding of sound production. I like to look at the physical and mental aspects of what produces sound. After sound, it is crucial to work on scales-- as scales are the foundation to all music. After scales, I like to spend time of technique and etudes. Read More
