Bio

Hello, I’m Trey (SCHOOL OF ROCK instructor for VOICE/PIANO and FORBES MUSIC CO. CLASSICAL PIANO teacher), and I have a unique ability to make you both literate and fluent in music.

Musical literacy means you can read music — like reading a book.

Musical fluency means you can make music — play by ear, improvise, jam, and create naturally, the way you speak a language.

Most teachers only train on one of these.
I teach both.

Fluency also uses a completely different kind of practice...

Hello, I’m Trey (SCHOOL OF ROCK instructor for VOICE/PIANO and FORBES MUSIC CO. CLASSICAL PIANO teacher), and I have a unique ability to make you both literate and fluent in music.

Musical literacy means you can read music — like reading a book.

Musical fluency means you can make music — play by ear, improvise, jam, and create naturally, the way you speak a language.

Most teachers only train on one of these.
I teach both.

Fluency also uses a completely different kind of practice — fun, creative, ear‑based work that feels like real music‑making, not the boring drills that burn out so many classical students. You’ll learn to read confidently and make music freely, so you become a complete musician, not just a note‑reader.

See you at the keyboard!

I have learned all 204 chords of jazz which are also used in pop. I know chords spontaneously at the piano which allows me to jam or improvise at the piano. Hear me sing and play piano at this link: https://www.bandmix.com/tracy1657081/

Piano

I have studied with Philip Kuhn, concert pianist and Juilliard graduate as well as composition student of famed French composer and teacher Nadia Boulanger. I studied with Mike Preddy, concert pianist, conductor, and music director for the Smothers' Brothers. I studied with Professors Robert Brownlee and Albert Hirsh of the University of Houston. And, I studied with Joel Locascio of Houston Community college, jazz pianist and composer, producing over 25 albums available on Spotify. I attended Adamant Music School in Vermont for a summer and I won a first prize in the Interscholastic league contest in high school playing a Haydn piano sonata. I am an instructor in piano and voice for THE SCHOOL OF ROCK in Houston, and I teach classical piano for the FORBES MUSIC CO..
