Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I love teaching people to love music! After hearing (and experiencing) horror stories of angry/pushy teachers and psychological damage, loss of love for playing and listening to music, physical injuries and other nightmares, I decided to structure my lessons differently. Gone are the days of paying top dollar for a babysitter who won’t even really teach you how to read the notes, much less play music you love, or enjoy yourself during the process of learning. Music is a language. When we are young children we learn to speak through immitation and improvisation. Only then when we have some communication skills do we learn to equate and associate sound and symbol. Improvisation, composition, songwriting, and other musical activities are completely forgotten in other teachers’ “methods”. Reading and playing are the one and only things you will learn — And you’re lucky if you actually learn to read & play with fluency. My lessons are structured more similarly to the GREATEST musicians in history from all over the globe: They include listening assignments, theory, history, appreciation, improvisation, composition, songwriting (lyrics) & creativity. We can also discuss music business, artist development & career, amateur career paths, sound healing, and other topics during lessons. Lessons also include creating WISH LISTS of your favorite songs that you would like to learn, so that you don’t spend years playing material you don’t even like!! Want to play and really enjoy yourself? Want to understand the notes you are playing and feel like you can really SPEAK music? Sign up for lessons with me today. Be sure to click the link below to view and read my ebook “Unlock Your Inner Musical Creativity with Piano Improvisation”. It’s pay what you want and will show you how to structure your journey both on your own and during lessons with me. IMPORTANT: Only virtual lessons are available. They are much lower in carbon footprint and far more convenient for making recordings of lessons, keeping track of assignments, and integrating seamlessly with computer & tablet technology, preparing you for making music in the 21st century, and starting a music career should you choose to create a youtube channel or similar way of sharing your music with the world. I know many of us are struggling to make ends meet. And while we have a passion for music, sometimes life can be brutal and seriously interrupt our progress. MY PREMIUM OFFER: Over the past years I have been crafting an experience that bridges the gap between professional and amateur. In this Aspiring Musical Artists program, any novice or seasoned musician can participate. We will do 3 things: 1. Create a professional sounding song together for release 2. Register and properly release this song with all the right content on the right channels 3. Grow your fanbase so you can start monetizing your music It is a path for financial freedom that can seriously help folks struggling to pay their bills. Most music programs & services throw caution to the wind when it comes to recouping your expenses to pay for education or creations. This program totally flips all of that on its own head. In fact, since the song created is a collaboration, DreaMusic has *vested interest* in making the song succeed. For those eager to break free of the constrictions of a day job, finally start earning some money with music to enhance and diversify income, and build a fanbase of committed listeners and supporters... this program is for you. And it's available for an extremely limited time to Beta Testers for 75% off the original price. That's an 8 week coaching program followed by 6 months of mentorship for a new extremely low price. We provide financing options to our members using to make your payments extremely manageable, yet we are paid upfront so we can continue to improve the service for you. You may think being a Beta tester would be a bad thing - but it actually IMPROVES the experience as at this stage I have much more time to give to you as an individual and make your experience the best that I can and even go above and beyond what is promised.

Alexx was beyond informative, and would often go above and beyond to ensure that I understood a concept. His classes were thorough, personal, and made me excited to continue to learn. He was flexible and understanding regarding any last minute changes on my end. His class offers tremendous value as it encompasses teaching piano at any level, but also Alexx can offer further insight about the industry and releasing original music eventually. Even if you just take the class for the piano lessons however, you will enjoy becoming a better pianist and musician all around.

Alex is friendly and a great teacher so far! I'm starting with very minimal knowledge about the piano and he's getting it right down to the basics. He explains things in a way that I can easily understand. Our first lesson was fun and eye-opening -- I'm looking forward to the next!

Alex was a fantastic teacher for my daughter for years. She continues to take piano lessons and practices almost every day on her own. It is a testament to having a teacher that made learning fun and engaging.

Alex taught my boys piano and drums. They are very different styled kids and Alex flexed his teaching to best inspire each one. We were amazed at what they learned from Alex. Every recital was a joy. We are sorry to have lost him to LA
