I provide lessons in all areas of percussion. This includes drum set and percussion keyboard instruments - piano, marimba, vibraphone, xylophone, etc.,
Lessons utilize a variety of pedagogical techniques in building classical and jazz percussion skills. This includes developing reading, improvisational and ensemble performance skills.
Lessons are tailored to the students' level of ability.
I typically work with students in elementary, middle and high school.
I also accommodate adults who want to brush up on their skills or just learn for fun!
​
For parents who are concerned about the volume level of percussion please call me to discuss your concerns. There are methods to significantly reduce the volume of a drum set and other percussion instruments. I can also assist and advise you with the purchase of music instruments and stay within a reasonable budget.

My daughter has really connected with Kurt and her performance has improved because of it. He’s terrific at getting the most out of her ability and has a fun way of sneaking in needed rudiments while playing music she loves. She’s been taking lessons with him over 3 years and looks forward to her lessons every time. We both highly recommend him!

Kurt is a wonderful teacher. My son looks forward to his lessons each week. Kurt has imparted a love for percussion and really accelerated my son’s skills development. I enjoyed seeing Kurt and my son together each week when lessons were in person. And since quarantine, the transition to remote instruction has worked out great. We highly recommend Kurt!

Kurt is a fantastic drum teacher! He was recommended to us by the band teacher at Kingsley Elementary. He’s been teaching my 12 year old son for two years and my son has progressed so much. Kurt is very kind and my son really enjoys the lessons. Highly recommend.
