Educator

Available for Private Instruction

Chris is available for private instruction at Gorby’s Music in South Charleston, WV and Trident Music Facility in Charleston, WV as well as clinics throughout the Kanawha Valley. He assesses the student’s level and prepares a study plan that is best for reaching their goals based on the individual’s strengths and personal interests as well as teaching his students to count and interpret music the way professionals approach the subject. 

Areas of study may include marching percussion, orchestral percussion, jazz, Latin, Brazilian, blues, big band, rock and country. 

Chris studied music at Interlochen Arts Academy, the Manhattan School of Music, New York, NY and holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from West Virginia State University.

 

Mission

My goal is to enrich my student’s life through the mastery of their instrument, understanding of music and positive reinforcement.
