With over 40 years of experience in music, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to help you on your musical journey. From performing and recording to composition, arrangement, and music production, I have a wide range of skills to share with you. Writing/Composition: I have released 6 albums and composed over 200 music compositions. Co-Writing: I have collaborated with various artists and m
usicians, bringing diverse perspectives to the creative process. Business: Since 1993, I have successfully run my own music/publishing business. Additionally, I established a web design/digital marketing business in 1997, showcasing my entrepreneurial spirit. Piano: Trained by David Murray, a respected figure in the industry, I have developed a strong foundation in piano playing and can guide you in mastering this beautiful instrument. Learn Piano: Experience the joy of learning on a Yamaha grand piano, providing you with an exceptional playing experience. Studio: Immerse yourself in a state-of-the-art digital/project recording setup. I work with industry-leading software such as Cubase, Reason, Logic, Bandlab, and GarageBand, ensuring you have the best tools for your musical journey. Keyboards/Synths: Explore a range of digital and analog keyboards, expanding your musical palette and creativity. My Approach: Learning music should be enjoyable and student-centric. I believe in tailoring the lessons to your specific goals and learning at a pace that suits you. Let's focus on what you want to learn without getting caught up in unnecessary theory or music school snobbery. Reading Music: Don't worry about the black dots on the page. Music is an auditory phenomenon that primarily uses our ears, not our eyes. Many world-renowned musicians, such as Paul McCartney, Metallica, Billy Joel, and the Rolling Stones, excel without reading sheet music. Playing Your Favorite Tunes: From day one, you'll be playing tunes you love. While I can't promise to turn you into Chris Martin, Elton John, or Keith Emerson overnight, you'll be playing enjoyable tunes in no time.
