saxophone, flute, & clarinet performance, and education

Online lessons are for advanced students on any pitched western instrument who wish to learn what good, sound practice habits look like with regard to improvisation.  My pedagogical approach is ground up, progressive, thorough and effective.

 

In my opinion, most people focus too much on theory when they teach/practice improvisation.  While theory is important, execution of concept is what listeners hear.  

 

Prospective online students must have relative proficiency on their instrument, know their 12 major scales and own a metronome.
