Saxophone Lessons Hudson County, NJ

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Piccolo

For students who are learning an instrument for band or marching band, I like to integrate their sheet music or method books into the lesson. I use method books with students who are new to their instrument. These materials are then supplemented with scales, solo repertoire, exercises, and technique work as appropriate for each student's interest and skill level. Lessons also consist of listening to previous assignments/repertoire from prior weeks and then offering feedback, answering any questions a student may have, and giving new assignments for the next lesson.

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Harmonica

I have been playing music since I was in 6th grade, and have been playing in bands on and off since high school.

Instruments: Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet

My lessons vary from student to student, but are generally comprised of two parts. The first part involves working out a method book or classical etude book, depending on the level of the student. I believe that working out of a book is a great way to cover many of the fundamental bases of being an instrumentalist, such as reading music, developing technique, developing a good sound, playing with good rhythm, etc. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Trumpet, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Music, Keyboard

I started my musical journey in a public school music program in fourth grade. My parents took me to see musical instruments on display at a local school where I quickly became interested in studying the clarinet. At first, I didn't take to the instrument. I found it to be difficult to play and I was not a top student in elementary school or middle school but I continued to sign up every year. Read More
