Dwight Mabe

Born: July 10, 1956

My college major was double bass. My teacher was a lady named Lynn Peters, a veteran of the Detroit and Milwaulkee symphony orchestras, as well as the bass teacher at the North Carolina School of the Arts (now known as the UNC School of the Arts) and UNC-Greensboro, where I earned Batchelor of Music, Performance and Batchelor of Music Education degrees. Lynn had an amazing amount of knowledge of the physiology of playing the double bass. I was privilged to share a stand with her in two different local symphonies. Much of the physiology of the MaxTone method is a result of what I learned from her. I was fortunate to be able to perform with several major jazz artists during this time period, mostly due to the connections of UNCG jazz ensemble director Ray Gariglio
