LESSONS
I offer lessons on a limited basis to committed,
motivated students, in piano/keyboard technique, jazz improvisation
for any instrument, arranging, and computer music production.
An intermediate/advanced student wishing to study improvisation or
arranging needs to be able to read notes on the staff and find these
notes quickly on their instrument. This is necessary to effectively
communicate the language of music. The aspiring improviser must become
facile with scales and chord construction, and then spend time experimenting
with these tools while learning repertoire. I have developed (and
acquired through my own study) many different approaches to practicing
these seemingly mundane topics. One-hour lessons are offered at the
rate of $60/hour.
I offer lessons/consultations covering the basics of computer music
production to those wishing to learn to record music using modern
technology; setting up your studio, using a computer based sequencer,
midi orchestration/arranging. Rates are $60/hour on site, $75/hour
off site.
PAYMENT
Payment is due at the beginning of each month for all lessons in
that month.
CANCELLATIONS
If you must cancel, please call 919-838-0776 at least 24 hours before
your lesson and leave a message. Make-ups for canceled lessons are
scheduled upon availability. If you cancel on the day of your lesson,
you could forfeit that lesson. Genuine emergencies will receive
special consideration, of course. I may occasionally have to cancel
a lesson. I will do my best to give 24 hours notice, and a credit
or make-up lesson will be offered.
