Jordan Lerner Music

Hi, I'm Jordan! I am from the NYC area, currently living in Rochester, New York. I am a young, energetic, high level instrumentalist with a special interest in teaching music. I love teaching all kinds of music, especially to beginners. I use a student-centered approach and encourage people from all backgrounds and skill levels! My favorite topics to teach are piano, saxophone, music theory, composition, and jazz improvisation.

I believe that studying music is a privilege and is vital to becoming a well-rounded person. Music is hard, but it is very rewarding. I studied classical piano for 10 years when I was a child, before becoming interested in jazz music and improvisation. Studying music at the Eastman School of Music and at Lincoln Center has taught me to work hard and appreciate art. Because of my love for music and dedication to my instruments, I have been fortunate enough to play in bands such as the: Berklee Jazz Ensemble, U.S. All-Eastern Jazz Ensemble, the U.S. All-National Jazz Band, and the Eastman Jazz Ensemble. Recently, I have been studying Psychology at the University of Rochester. Learning about the human mind from such great teachers has allowed me to understand and refine my own teaching strategies.

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or to schedule a lesson. I look forward to teaching you music and helping you achieve your goals!

Best,

Jordan L.
