TAKE PIANO LESSONS in Dallas

About Me

I am a classically trained pianist and composer with an MM and DMA in music composition and just recently moved to the Dallas area. I've been giving private piano, composition and music theory lessons for the past ten years. Before that I taught classes at the university level in music theory and electronic music. My music has been performed in the US and Europe and I've played and premiered new music in the US by other living composers. Recordings of my playing can be found on albums published by Centaur Records and Capstone Records.

Music has always been my passion and I teach music so I can share that passion with others. Recently I've been involved with a startup company called Illiac Software that develops educational software for teaching music theory. I'm also a member of the Dallas Music Teachers Association, Texas Music Teachers Association and the Music Teachers National Association.

Teaching Style

These are qualities that are important to me as a teacher:

After a few months, a beginning student will start to build a small repertoire of pieces that can be performed for friends and family. My long-term goal for my students is to encourage them to strive for a deep sense of musicality and musical understanding, a goal that I myself am always striving for.

Rates

These are the rates I charge when teaching from my studio location:

I also drive to locations if the drive is within 15 mins. or so and in the Dallas area. These are my in-home lesson rates (equal to my studio rates plus an additional $15):

I teach children or adults at any age or ability level. I also offer a free trial lesson so you can see what a lesson is like. Please contact me for more information.
