Tim N.

6 Saxophone lessons

He has taught me not only specific Saxophone techniques but also the music theory. He focused on details and paid attention on my form, fingering, tonguing, breathing techniques…, these basic but vital steps have helped me building a strong foundation for playing Saxophone. Eric has an incredible music talent. I had a chance to see him performed live with his band and listened to his released CDs, and his music was amazing!! He is a great Saxophone player!!.

He also showed me how to tune my saxophone and gave great advice on how to practice my breathing in order to produce wonderful sound! Highly recommend Nick for saxophone classes!
