Saxophone and Clarinet lessons from renowned Jazz Educator and Musician with 45 years experience. Jazz Theory, Jazz Improvisation, and Audition Coaching also available.

Paul has the amazing quality of being a teacher who can break down complicated topics into digestible pieces and build them back up every step of the way. His ability to explain things from different perspectives also allows him to understand and entertain the unique and varied needs of his students.
Not only does he have a deep teaching understanding, but he also has the experience of performing and recording from a fruitful career to back it up.
Any student that has the opportunity to study with Paul is a fortunate one.

I have known Paul for over 30 years as both a professional musician, educator, and dear friend. We have performed together in many different ensembles, and I have invited him to work with our students at Saddleback College many times. He is an excellent musician on many levels but his vast experience and knowledge as an improvisor and composer are his strongest qualities. Having witnessed his teaching over decades in a variety of institutions including the Idyllwild Arts Academy for 20 years, I can highly recommend him as a great teacher who connects with those who seek to learn.
