William's Music Lessons (Piano, Vocal)

Years of Experience: Around 30 years experienc Location Options: In Home Genres: Rock, Blues, Country Age Groups: Young Adult, Adult Instruments Taught: Keyboard and Piano Lessons,Vocal Lessons Overview: I was born in Dallas and grew up in different cities in Texas and Arizona. I’ve been singing and playing keyboards and harmonica in rock roll and blues bands since age 17. I spent a few years touring on the road where I worked with some amazing and talented people before I went to college where I studied art and music. I moved back to Dallas after graduation and have played in various rock and blues bands for many years. During the last decade, I have given lessons to people who wanted to advance their skills at keyboard and harmonica and singing without lots of drills and exercises. I don’t teach with sheet music. I try to give people the tools to learn songs by understanding their instrument and training their ear to understand what they’re hearing and how it translates to their instrument. I like to take on students who want to learn this technique. It’s a fun and hands on way to get right into the music if you’re a beginner, an aspiring performer or just want to improve on your instrument or improve your singing. I use only electronic keyboards and do not own a standard piano or organ. Over the years I’ve found it important to be as mobile as possible. Formal Education: Art, B.A. (Texas Tech 1980) Music, B.A. (Texas Tech 1980 Private Education: I have worked with some amazing and talented people over the last 30 years or so both performing and in the recording studio. I have learned more from them than I could any private tutor. Performing Experience: Irsquo;ve performed in Rock and Blues bands full and part time for over 30 years including a few years touring the U.S. Experience Teaching: I've been teaching for about ten years. It started when people seeing me perform would ask me to give them a few pointers. They liked my teaching style and it just grew from there from mainly word of mouth. -Reviews- Name: Date: 2016-02-13 15:35:25 Title: Review from Graham D.
