For any of you who have been thinking about improving your technique, but don't know where to begin, I've put together a DVD + first Skype lesson package.

Basic Free Hands Technique DVD plus a half hour skype lesson for only $40 + shipping.

This is primarily intended for students who haven't taken lessons with me before, but if you've already been taking lessons and don't have the DVD you can take advantage of this as well.

I focus on basic technique concepts primarily, but there are many other things I can help you with, including:

-how to get the most from your rig
-arrangement ideas for covers and original tunes
-how to figure out fingerings that make the most musical sense for difficult pieces.

For more about the DVD and PayPal links for this special deal, please see:

I'm putting together my schedule now for the week beginning January 5, so please get in touch soon if you are interested. All time zones accommodated.

Tappy New Year

Well, at first I thought this was going to be a bust, but then a couple of people took me up on it, so consider this a bump...

Still plenty of 1/2 hour time slots available. I recently taught one of my students how to play "Tim Was Here" from Ether Ore (funny to go back and reconstruct improvised piece like that). Also currently working on things like Barber's "Adagio for Strings", "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy" "Sunshine of Your Love". Any tune any style, I'll be happy to help you figure it out.

And another bump...
