Music Lessons in Concord, MA

Instruments: Lute Double Bass

For absolute beginners, I begin with the Sassmannshaus double bass book alongside other materials that help to connect musical ideas with something we already know well: speech. I believe that learning music is just like learning another language. We already know how to communicate effectively, we just need to learn how we can effectively translate those thoughts into music. Just like any language, music is structured in its own manner. Read More

There are few things in life that bring me more joy than seeing students develop a passion for expressing themselves through music!

Acknowledging and encouraging students empowers them to play confidently and grow in skill. Read More

I am always continuing to expand my potential as a musician and as a human being. I feel that self-knowledge equates largely to the quality and meaning of music when expressed. Technical abilities are very important of course as they set the limitations of self-expression, though many seem to overlook the deeper purposes and benefits of music. I myself love my craft.
