I have played in professional orchestras and jazz combos for the last fifteen years. For the past six years I have been living in Germany, playing in the Bass section of the Deutsche Oper Berlin (German State Opera.) Since my return to the Bay Area I have been performing with Opera San Jose, the Modesto, Berkeley, and Pacific Symphonies, the Stockton Chorale, as well as the Sacramento Philharmonic and San Jose Chamber Orchestra, among others. I am enthusiastic about working with students of all levels and ages. The initial lesson is free to see if the chemistry is right. In my teaching I focus on left and right hand
technique, basic principles of Bass playing, as well as etudes and solo pieces. I can teach many styles of music including classical, jazz, bluegrass, rock, and reggae. I currently work as a Bass instructor at Whitehill Middle School, San Rafael High School, and Marin Community Music School.
