Unleash your musical genius or cultivate your inner music critic with cutting-edge music appreciation classes, music theory and history seminars, private instruction, ensemble training or better visibility as a performer in visual media such as television and film. I offer programs that redefine the boundaries of music learning, no matter the musical style. Empowering artists and listeners alike, I will give you a comprehensive approach to music learning which will radically connect you to the music itself and to the cultural and historical settings in which the music evolved. From the ragas of ancient India to the fugues of Bach to the swing of the Harlem renaissance to Bowie to Hip Hop and onward. We can ask the burning musical questions: “How do I interpret a piece of music” “Do you know the way to San Jose?” “Is there life on Mars?” Is it really true that “Video killed the Radiostar?” “What is the Sound of One Hand Clapping?” “How do you get to Carnegie Hall? “How the heck do I tune this thing?” “What’s the Picardy Third and why does it make me feel so happy?” “Should I take the watch off before playing?”
