About
Piano Lessons-I am super easy to work with. Most teachers can teach you how to read music. I go beyond that. Yes I want you to know how to read and know the fundamentals, but I also want you to know how music works. There are really few people that are going to just play classical. Most students want to know other styles. So we introduce you to chords and scales and show you how to apply them into the music, or lead sheet. I give you a more of an "everyday" approach to music, rather than just learn how to read music. I start lessons (typically) at ages 6 and up. Please let me know how I can help you with your musical goals. Contact me for any questions and schedule availability. Also, feel free to check out my website for other resources, lesson policy details, and tuition. Performing-I have been performing in the Puget Sound area now for about 15 years. I play for restaurants, church, private/public parties, and weddings. I am easy to work with and do my best to add a "cool" factor to any event. Nothing is classier than a jazz group live to help create a sweet atmosphere.

JD Dorland Music has been a fantastic experience. I chose to start Piano Lessons in the middle of December which is already a very busy month and JD was very accommodating with dates and times. I am an adult with no experience in playing the Piano or reading music and my first lesson was a great experience. He is incredibly friendly and the environment was laid back and welcoming. JD provided me with the tools necessary to succeed outside of my lesson with a combination of book and online work. I truly felt like he set me up to be successful. You will not be disappointed by JD Dorland Music.

JD is professional and great with my 6 year old little girl. She has been wanting to play piano for two years now and is thrilled to have great direction. As her mom, I am thrilled that his instructions are clear enough for me, and my non-musical experience, to understand and help her when she needs it. JD is great.

JD was quick to respond to my request for piano lessons. He is friendly and professional. Offers support for my own lack of music knowledge so I am able to assist my daughter with her practice at home. I really enjoy the laid back feel JD gives off during lessons, and best of all my 7 year old is having fun learning!

JD provided just what I was looking for--a range of options and theories for improvising in jazz keyboard. I'm self-taught, and JD was very patient with what I didn't know.
