Teacher Info

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 am specialized in the extended range bass(5-6str) but teach 4 str bass str. as well. 

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. 

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 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.
