Piano & trombone lessons in Carroll Gardens.
In-home piano and trombone lessons in Carroll Gardens, built around each student’s interests, abilities, and enjoyment of music.
Thoughtful music lessons, close to home.
For families balancing busy afternoons, the in-home format helps private lessons become a comfortable part of the week. Students can learn and practice on familiar instruments without traveling to a separate studio.
I teach classical fundamentals alongside jazz, pop, improvisation, music theory, and composition when those areas interest the student. The goal is to cultivate curiosity and a lasting connection with music—not only to finish a lesson book.
What lessons can include
Students can focus on in-home practice habits, personalized repertoire, rhythmic confidence, and musicianship. Each lesson is tailored to age, level, and interests.
- Piano lessons — technique, repertoire, theory & creativity
- Trombone lessons — tone, reading, ensemble skills & improvisation
- Children, teens and adults
- Beginners and continuing students
