Credentials/Background
Teaching since 1962 Was on the Chicago Tribunes Web site when Eric Zorn was doing the Someday is Now (sin) project. I use no course books I teach how to play in all 12 keys be it winds, strings, and of course piano. When the Steinway Society of Chicago was still around I was recognized for my Alternative Teaching. I further the ideas of John Mehegan, Frank Mantooth and... I share these same ideas on my site now www.propianoteacher.com All are free for the taking. I teach how to re-structure the harmonic makeup for a melody as well as all the scales in an atonal beauteous way
