Workshops

I offer Mandolin workshops at beginner, intermediate, and advanced

levels, as well as specialty workshops in improvisation,

chord building, and reading music for Mandolin players.

I have conducted Mandolin workshops across North America for over two

decades, including many on stage and pre-festival workshops at

the National Flatpick Championships (Walnut Valley Festival),

various music stores across the country, and various types of

workshops (composer’s, improvisation, advanced technique)

at many Classical Mandolin Society of America conventions.

To schedule a workshop at your music store,

school, festival, or event, please click contact.

Reviews:

“I was in the Beginner Mandolin class Saturday morning. I was lost and didn’t know how to read the music or make anything meaningful out of the tablature. But I paid attention anyway and tonight I picked my way through Old Joe Clark! Badly, but an audible click took place! So thank you. Coming from a saxophone and piano background, this was completely foreign to me, and the click was sorely needed.”

“It was great. Just what I was looking for 🙂 the basics with a great overlay of all you’ve learned being a 2X W.V. Champ.”
