Teaching

Saxophone/Improvisation/Clinician Services

Are you interested in learning saxophone, improvisation, or taking either of those to the next level? I have given over 500 private lessons and worked with students of all ages and ability levels in the states of Illinois, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. Lessons are individually structured around student goals and musical interests, supplemented with material from me to push your technical, stylistic, and creative skills to the next level. My students have gone on to be nominated for Princeton School District (Minnesota) Honor Band and have continued to enrich their lives with music as members of collegiate music programs across the midwest.

 

I also love working with larger groups in an educational setting. My experiences in concert band, jazz band, marching band, and my indepdent pursuit of improvisation have helped many students in the Chicagoland and Greater Milwaukee schools. If you are looking to mix-up your rehearsal or enhance a certain aspect of your program, let me know how I can help you!

Private Lessons 

I offer zoom lessons to out of state students and still have space in my studio for virtual lessons. I teach in person lessons in DuPage County through Ensemble Music Schools.
