About
After a show with a local rock band, a friend of mine asked me for cello lessons. That was in 2014, and I've been giving lessons ever since. I began playing cello at 10 and guitar at 11. I played other instruments as a child, but cello and guitar became my lifelong passions. I earned a bachelor's in Education from Drake University and I'm very patient. After moving to Denver in 2009, I continued to refine my craft as a cellist, guitarist, and eventually as a music teacher. I've played and recorded with bands including; PrettyMouth, Sawmill Joe, Edison, King Cardinal, The Patient Zeros, Tyto Alba, Felix Fast4ward, and many others. Lief also started releasing his own compositions in 2017, and can be seen performing in and around Denver.
I enjoy helping to bring the gift of music into peoples lives, whether it's a young person with big dreams or an adult beginner that wants to try something new, music enriches all of our lives and the experience of music is enriched by the understanding of music and the ability to play it at any level.
