About

I tailor every lesson to the student's personal and musical needs. Studying music is a perfect avanue to deeper self expression and increased self knowledge.

The little breakthroughs in the lessons are so fun for me. Helping each student uncover their own path to a deeper understanding of themselves is ultimately where we end up but the journey is always unique and fascinating. I get just as much satisfaction and enjoyment out of teaching as I do performing.

    Sean was fantastic to work with and created a comfortable environment for my son to grow as a flute player. He worked with us over COVID via zoom so my son did not have to miss learning an instrument and he somehow made it exciting for my son so much so that he continued the instrument once he returned to school. Seam made it cool and fun to play the flute. He was an excellent teacher.

    I took lessons from Sean for over 5 years, throughout high school and into college, and having Sean as my teacher mentor had a huge positive impact and influence on my life, not just as a musician but also as a person.
    While I did not become a professional musician, Sean inspired me to practice every day for years, which instilled in me a work ethnic that has benefited me in life. Sean taught me how to think and express myself creatively, and to have confidence in myself, skills that I use every day in business and life, even as a non-musician. Perhaps most of all, Sean taught me the importance of having fun in life and pursuing what makes one happy and fulfilled, something I practice in my life daily, all these years later.
    I am so lucky to have taken lessons from Sean, and would recommend him in a heart beat to anyone considering. Ive had many music teachers in my life, but none as fun or as inspiring as Sean. Its not a coincidence that I improved as a musician more under Sean than with any of those other teachers, either.

    I cant think of anyone more passionate about music and teaching than Sean. Weve been musical colleagues for 20+ years and his engagement and enthusiasm have been there from the very beginning. Its infectious. Hes always sharing stories about the creative ways hes able to share the important musical fundamentals with his students, and to share that excitement with them. A+++++

    First and foremost, Sean is a master of his craft - an amazing and innovative sax and flute player with the ability to take his music to new dimensions with electronic effects. Next, Sean has found a way to communicate and teach these ideas in creative and experiential ways. Lessons are discussions and musical dialogues that get you to where you want to go.

    I’ve known Sean for a long time as a performing artist and as a teacher. He has tremendous knowledge of the instruments, theory, electronics, sounds and instruments like EMEO and years of experience of performing nationwide and worldwide, which he shares with ease and makes very understandable to the students of any age or playing ability. He tailors lessons to students needs and makes them improve tremendously. He is well rounded worldly person and wonderful caring human with open mind and open senses.

    After receiving degrees from Berklee College of Music and Manhattan School of Music, I've taught in several music schools and private conservatories around the NYC/NJ/CT. I've been an international arts educator presenting in-school and online hiphop / jazz / songwriting / technology workshops with my band Soul Inscribed and have been teaching private lessons for 20+ years.

    Hire someone who truly hears you. Most of the job of a private music instructor is to have the student discover more about who they are through the medium of learning an instrument.
