Perspectives from the Bass Faculty

Q: What are some of your favorite experiences teaching at your school?

A: Being able to see the growth of my students.  Teaching in a downtown environment in a metropolitan area.  Performing with my colleagues and students.

My goal as a teacher is to help instill a love for music and to help guide my students to reach their full potential as a double bassist.
