Piano Lessons Sumner County, TN

Instruments: Piano, Keyboard

Greetings future student! I have composed, performed, taught, and produced music for 25 years now. One way I continue to experience the joy of music is by passing along what I have learned. I am currently the Pianist for Saint Michael Catholic Church and have extensive experience in many facets of music and the challenges we face - both in performance and development of musicianship as well as understanding. I don't live vicariously through my students. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Violin, Keyboard, Acoustic Guitar

My desire is for all of my students to know and learn proper technique. For beginner students, I will start with theory basics that are foundational to learning and can be directly applied to their instrument. Once they gain a basic understanding of the fundamentals, I will introduce more complete solo repertoire that they can begin to work on. Depending on the interests, learning desires, and level of the student, I will move forward with what interests them, though I may require some classical selections as I believe it to be a style foundational to a great musician.

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Cello, Viola

I like to begin each lesson with a warm up to get the mind and fingers working together. From there we will focus on building technique, musicality, and theory knowledge while focusing on cello repertoire. To end each lesson, we'll break out something fun whether that means learning a new pop song, jazz piece, or playing a cello duet. My lessons can be structured based on the students needs and meeting their long term or short term goals. Read More
