1880 Theatricals
About
My name is David and I teach string instruments like guitar, bass guitar, cello and string bass, as well as tuba and euphonium. I teach at a couple of local studios, and also at home and at student's homes.
I've been playing for over 40 years, and I play a lot of musical theatre shows which involves many different styles, from classical to bluegrass to rock.
I like to tailor a program of lessons to what the student enjoys, while establishing strong fundamentals.
