I am currently accepting students into my private studio! Build your musical skillset with the guidance of an experienced teacher. Lessons are taught online or in-person in the West Hartford/Hartford area.

Educational outreach at all ages is important to me. I regularly teach clinics, woodwind sectionals and masterclasses at K-12 institutions and universities.

I have taught classical saxophone, jazz/pop saxophone, and music theory since 2017.

More specifically, you or your student can develop the following skills:

• How to read music

• How to control the saxophone properly

• Effective practice techniques

• Audition preparation skills

• Sight-reading skills

• Improvisation

• Ear training/ Understanding Harmony

• Music theory

• and more!

"My experience with Scott has been very positive. He is an attentive teacher who cares deeply about his students progress. He pays close attention and remembers students struggles and encourages them as they make progress. He does a very good job of making his students feel comfortable and motivated. Any student being taught under Scott is a lucky one."

"Scott is very friendly, welcoming, and easy to get along with and his knowledge on the teaching is always well thought out and accurate. Out of all the music teachers I’ve had, he has made me feel the most comfortable with just being in the room."

"Thorough and supportive. Scott remembers what needs to be improved upon and helps you reach your goal. Also, extremely knowledgeable in almost every area."
