I have been a professional musician and teacher for over 30 years. For the last 20 years joined more than 25 groups, as a performer. As a band leader, I create my Jazz band and made more than 300 concerts in Canada since 2014, even though I was a concert organizer for more than 1 year.
I was part of a bass player in 6 CDs. Teaching almost all styles based on jazz harmony from Blues to Fusion, including all Balkan styles.

I created a 6-str bass chord concept. In this tutorial, I explain how to play 5 chords all over the fretboard from the lowest to the highest note. I also innovate new chords that didn’t exist before as an option.
This concept is with a music track(MP3) and every example is music notated. As an experienced teacher, I created 3 music courses online. I have also had huge experience as a Gospel Church player.
Lessons are pay-as-you-go, weekly, fortnightly or as suits you.
I welcome students of all ability levels to take my lessons. I will make a lesson plan that suits your needs as a learner and player.
I welcome beginners to take my lessons.
For more than 30 years I have been on the stage. I played on international tours in more than 6 different countries such as Bulgaria, Holland, Canada, Israel, the USA, and Ukraine. In Switzerland, I was playing at the biggest Christian festival Levitencamp and I was playing for more than 12,000 people.
I was studying for 1 year with Mr. John Patitucci and attended 2 workshops with Mr. Alain Caron. My playing is greatly influenced by these two professional bass players.
I hold a Music Master’s degree from the National Academy of Music Bulgaria – Sofia. I studied at the Rimon School of Music, Israel for 1 year, equivalent to the Berklee College Of Music.
I can also offer a lot of help to more advanced bass players
I teach the following disciplines: Bass Guitar, Music Theory, Jazz Improvisation, and Musical Composition As a music teacher, I have been active for over 30 years, working with students from all over the world to help them achieve their music-playing goals, teaching all those 3 disciplines and also teaching Music Composition and helping people with their original projects.
In my lessons, I teach all components of music such as rhythm, harmony, melody, theory, soloing and improvisation. For more than 5 years I was teaching in a Music school Yuwalim in Israel – Tel Aviv.
I am working with a program(software) that can help drastically to improve the music student’s ability and get involved in the music for a short period. The program is like a playback. I have the flexibility to create track/song playback for any instrument, as we know minus one for guitar, piano bass and drums. Some components can adjust to the student: Tempo 20-300 BPM, 12 different keys and more than 40 styles. Also was involved in a Jazz Student band as a teacher leader.
I welcome learners of all ability levels to take my lessons. I will make a lesson plan that suits you as a learner of 6 string bass. Together will will improve your playing in ways you never thought were possible before. If you ever have any questions, please send me an email.
