Introduction: (New York City Based - Skype & FaceTime available).
Hi! I am an internationally acclaimed and active conductor, organist, pianist, composer and educator who teaches privately in addition to my concertizing. My studio is in Washington Heights (Upper Manhattan New York City) close to subways lines and West Side Highway.
I have many years experience working with children of all ages. I encourage parents to attend the lessons as a productive tool to help your child in the learning process. I also have extensive experience working with children/adults with ADD/AHDD, Aspergers/ autism with wonderful results.
I was a Professor of Piano Keyboard Skills, Theory and Ear Training at the prestigious Manhattan School of Music for many years. I have coached with many singers both in Opera and Musical Theatre. I also taught Music History at Barnard College. I believe in a very friendly and supportive learning environment. You will find many recordings of my playing on Youtube. I have a large grand piano in sunny quiet teaching studio in Washington Heights. I have experience teaching students at every level from beginner to professionals from all over the world - Europe, Asia, Australia/New Zealand, etc. I believe in addition to the musical basics, it is important to develop the skills of sight reading and improvisation as a way to grow as an artist at any level. I look forward to working with you.
