Music Lessons
I am NOT currently considering new students for guitar, flute and piano. Sorry!

A student's lessons should be first and foremost about the perfection of the technique for their instrument. However, I feel that a broad understanding of music composition and theory will enhance the student's appreciation of the music they are making. To this end, I frequently include projects and assignments that teach composition and encourage creativity. Also, I strongly believe in the value of ensemble work. Therefore, as soon as a student is ready, I'll begin to work on duets or larger ensembles with them. And, if we end up doing a real gig somewhere, all the better to give the student some real-world experience!
I specialize in piano and guitar instruction, as well as composition lessons. However, I can teach the basics of pretty much any band instrument, having been a band director for a long time and having played many instruments myself. Further, I have a strong background in woodwinds, having played clarinet, saxophone and flute extensively.
