Instruments: Piano Saxophone

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at their own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Music

I am lucky enough to be associated with this thing called music. As a kid, I was introduced to the piano by my dear mother, a pipa player (traditional Chinese guitar), who has always admired western musical instruments. I was never too serious until my teenage years when I met several teachers and friends (to this day) who have shown me how to read music properly and what it means to read it properly. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone Music

One of the single most important thing a student can do is to listen. Method books and etudes are great, but it's important for students of all ages to have a frame of reference for what they want to achieve. Once we both know what a student wants to achieve, I'll gather a series of repertoire for them. For beginners, I start with just the mouthpiece, so they understand how to have and maintain a good embouchure before they start with the rest of the saxophone. Read More
