Bruce has over 20 years experience teaching piano and related musical skills to all ages and levels.

His students include:

• Children.
• Adults, beginning through advanced, whose focus is enjoyment and
  personal growth.
• Professionals, including singers, composers, and guitarists who wish to expand their musicianship and piano skills.

Lessons are tailored to the individual's precise interests and musical tastes. Students learn to read music, to play by ear, to improvise, to sing and accompany themselves, to arrange, and to compose. Depending on their needs and interests, they study classical piano repertoire, pop/rock/blues styles and grooves, technique, theory, ear training, and keyboard harmony.

In addition to his regular practice, Bruce enjoys coaching teachers who are either just getting started, or who wish to strengthen and rejuvenate their professional practice.
