Woodwinds, Arranging, Composition, Education
I am a New Orleans based woodwind player, composer, and arranger. My primary instrument is the alto saxophone, but I am adept on all saxophones, as well as flute and clarinet. I play many styles of music, from popular to niche, with unwavering fervor and respect for the craft. As a sideman, I have toured both nationally and internationally and have composed and arranged for several different acts. As a leader, I released my debut record in the Jazz idiom in october of 2023 and have also released EP's in the rock, experimental, and ambient genres. I have years of experience as a private instructor and am currently taking new students, both in person and online. I find great joy in making music out of everyday objects and making instruments. I may one day expand this site to include those interests!
Services
Transcription and Arranging
I’ll make professional level sheet music of any song or piece of music, original or otherwise, for whatever ensemble instrumentation you require.
I specialize in big band reductions for smaller jazz ensembles, but have also worked with string and vocal ensembles.
I can also compose and arrange original string or horn section parts to provide that finishing touch or extra umph your original music needs.
Session Work
I’ll lay down any and all woodwind parts for your release. Soprano, alto, tenor, or baritone saxophone, flute, or clarinet. In studio or remotely.
Private Lessons
With years of one on one lesson experience, I can help you bring your saxophone playing to the next level. Whether you’re just getting started or have years of playing on stage under your belt, I’d love to work with you to achieve your musical goals. Lessons can be in person or remote, however, I do not offer remote lessons for beginners.
