Saxophone Lessons Massachusetts

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Music

These degrees may not seem to add much to my musical background, but their very training solidifies my persistence in logical training, something much required in the study of music. In my spare time, a good friend and I have prepared podcasts on guiding classical music appreciation to a deeper level than simple song recognition. I used to arrange for and coach an acapella group based in New York. I also compose recreationally and transcribe piano music into symphonic expansions. Read More

I have been teaching music for many years and I love sharing what I know and approaching music together with someone who has a passion for it. my experience touring and at Berklee College of Music has given me the tools to deepen my knowledge and provide a good learning experience. I am also a certified Yoga and Meditation instructor, therefore, I teach how to connect the body with the instrument and how to develop technique and creativity by incorporating silence and breath.

Instruments: Voice, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Recorder

My main concern is that students enjoy what they are doing as it will foster continued interest, a willingness to practice, and success.  For intermediate and advansed students, I will work with them on band/orchestra, SEMSBA, and District pieces. I also like to add in other pieces. One company that I like to use is Rubank/Hal Leonard. They make methods from Elementary to Advanced. For vocal students, I will work with a number of different pieces dependant upon skill and interest. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone

I began taking private students two years ago with an age range of 14 years old to 62 years old. Since beginning my Master's Degree at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, I am the TA for the Saxophone Department and I currently have 8 students (Freshman and Sophomore Undergraduates). I like to emphasize fundamentals to my students and each week hold them accountable for retaining these fundamental skills such as finger placement and technique, posture and air support and maintaining a steady embouchure.
