Introduction: I am a schooled musician with four degrees -- A.S. in Music from Niagara County Community College, B.S. in Jazz Studies and B.S. in Theory/Composition from SUNY New Paltz, and an M.A. in Jazz Performance from CUNY Queens College in NYC.
I teach students from ages 7 to 60. I can teach rock, blues, jazz, funk, fusion, and pop. I like to present a nice blend of academic material to my students along with cool tunes to play and fun material to jam with. Music should always be relaxed and fun while still providing a solid service to the art.
