Lessons / Education

I am committed to helping students of all ages and abilities develop their musical skills. If you are a budding electric bassist or string bass player, or if you are already well-versed in one genre and would like to develop in another, I have been down that road myself and I have helped numerous students achieve new goals.

I can help you develop as a solid jazz player, rock bassist or prepare your classical string bass solos and orchestral literature. I teach privately and I am very proud to be an Adjunct Professor at the University of Connecticut teaching Jazz Combos class and providing individual lessons to both jazz and classical bass majors and minors.

I am happy to share the following video lessons for high school students who will be auditioning on jazz bass for the CT Regional Jazz Festivals. I use the audition etudes “Friends” and “Rose” – by Jim Snidero and apply the adjudication standards to elements of the piece, to help students prepare the best, and highest scoring audition possible.

Feel free to check it out the lessons here:
