About
As a performing musician I have played for 3 American Presidents and 2x for the Queen of England. I have played in 6 Broadway shows and played with high level bands traveling throughout the U.S and abroad. As an instructor, I have taught both at the college level, various music schools and have currently been teaching from my studio for the past 10 years.
I teach from my studio located at 68th + West End Av. and I really get a lot of satisfaction watching students progress, realizing their goals, and getting excited about doing something that they weren't able to do before.

I've been taking lessons with Robert for 1 month and couldn't be happier. He's patient, explains things clearly, and tailors each lesson to what I want to learn. I've made more progress with him than I ever did teaching myself. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn guitar, whatever their level.

I've had a couple guitarlessons with Robert and thoroughly enjoy his instruction. He is a highly competent musician/composer and an extremely knowledgeable and patient teacher. I recommend you connect with Robert if you are serious about learning an instrument or how to compose.

Great teacher! I am a complete beginner and he does a great job explaining to someone who has never played both in terms of hand placement and reading music. Also very flexible in terms of booking for my busy work schedule. Would recommend
