I’ve decided to change up the look of the site, hope you like it! Sharing some new photos as well from my good friend Nicole Bertone. These were taken in the Ruth Gordon Amphitheater in Quincy, MA, one of the first stages I ever performed on. Stay tuned for more on the new record, a new book of duets and more.
Excited to announce that I’ll be joining the Full Time Faculty at Borough of Manhattan Community College, part of the City University of New York, this Fall! Along with Quentin Angus and Can Olgun I’ll be one third of the Jazz and Popular Music Faculty.
I look forward to working with the students and faculty and helping to build up this relatively new program.
In other news, I have reduced the Amazon pricing on Bach Shapes II, for treble and bass clef, you can find them here: Bach Shapes II – Bass Clef.
Just sharing that I’ve recently reordered stock for all of the print books, and I hope you’ll order them while I have them!
The bass clef books are in stock! Notreble.com was nice enough to write up the new book:

I now have all of the books below available for bass clef! Now I just need to buy a bass. Enjoy!
I’ve decided to do three more free Zoom workshops this summer, on the books and more. The first one will be July 5, a Monday at 11am. As always, recordings will be shared after the event so you don’t need to be there in real time, but I would love it if you were! Sign up for the first workshop is here:

We’ll discuss working on Bach Shapes II with doubles, namely the clarinet, but this will include general ideas on practicing the material. Please do send questions in advance as well!
In other news, Bach Shapes II Bass Clef is almost finished and will be available in print and digital by July 20th!
