Trevor - Your piano teacher
As an experienced multi-instrumentalist tutor and performer, I want the absolute best for my students! I want you to have what I've had and more! My students are mostly beginners with an occasional beginner-intermediate player, all of whom want to compose, jam, and or perform! I promote cross-genre learning, so my students learn to play comfortably across musical genres and with different kinds of musicians, and in different roles, from soloing to accompaniment. I also nurture my students to perform and develop into recording artists as well as advocates for what they believe in. I specialize in instruments including piano and keyboards, and mixing, mastering, and publishing using Ableton Live 12, and various live and virtual instrument configurations!
