Beethoven said: “To play a wrong note is insignificant. To play without passion is inexcusable.” Having lessons is a vital part of understanding music, but more important my lessons are to provoke passion. I charge less than other teachers, not because I don’t teach well, but because I genuinely want to help students.
As a Brazilian pianist with 20+ years of experience, I try to bring the vibrant rhythms of Bossa Nova, Samba, and jazz improvisation to my classes, guiding students through various styles. Whether you're a beginner or advanced, you'll learn what you want, while building a strong foundation in music theory.
