I've taught music to students of all ages for over 30 years - as a band director in a Manhattan private school, and to private students in my studio.​​

​​

I was Band Director and Music Theory teacher at the Trevor Day School from 1992 to 2023, starting the program from nothing, with 5 high school kids, a nice Fender Rhodes, a vintage P bass, and a beaten up drum kit. Over the years I built the program to one of the most vibrant music programs in Manhattan, with over 100 students, 9 ensembles, and 4 levels of Music Theory in both both middle and high school, with multiple middle and high school grade level bands, a classical group , an advanced jazz ensemble, plus others. Many of my ex students continue in music today, and I'm very proud of my work with hundreds of students over the years.
