Jazz & Blues

Jazz improvisation and composition are inextricably linked.
Improvisation at the piano is a form of composition that occurs, or is created, in the moment, and as a result is not written down. This is an exciting and challenging medium that asks a great deal of every musician.

My professional teaching and performing experience enables me to offer specialist, in-depth guidance and tuition to those committed to jazz and blues performance.
