For over 25 years I have been teaching students of various skill level: hobbyists, music majors in college, and professional musicians, such as 4x Grammy Award winning artist D'Angelo. I offer Zoom/Skype lessons for students interested in improving their guitar playing and musicianship. Lessons are tailored to the student's goals and skill level, and I only teach material that has real world application. My approach is to focus on music fundamentals, build a strong foundation, and empower students to become their own teachers.
Areas of focus
solo jazz guitar (chord melody)
music theory
jazz harmony-improvisation
rhythm guitar
arranging
blues guitar
sight reading
ear training
Please contact me by email to schedule/discuss lessons. I am happy to set up a phone call as well.
