As a private music teacher, Chase has worked with students across the globe for 15+ years, from countries including the United States, Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Italy, Austria, France, Russia and Japan.
While attending The Juilliard School (B.M. 2014), Chase simultaneously served on the faculty of the school’s Music Advancement Program (MAP) as a private instructor and ensemble coach.
Saxophone / Clarinet Lessons
Saxophone or clarinet lessons teach instrumental technique paired with skills for improvisation. Chase strives to help student’s realize their individual “voice,” or expressive personality in the context of music theory, composition and technical study. Chase’s teaching style integrates creativity with technical knowledge—the customized experience is accessible to anyone of any age, background and skill level. Available for all levels.
Music Technology & Composition Lessons
Available to all levels, this experience integrates Apple’s Logic® to teach principles of melody, harmony, keyboard skills, and composition. Useful to musicians of all instruments, this fun format encourages students to create music from the very beginning, while while also developing musical knowledge and 21st-century skills for a life of creativity and personal expression. Optional as supplement to conventional lessons or a la carte.
Music Career Coaching
Chase offers personalized coaching to advanced students often seeking guidance on conservatory admissions and early career development. This program is also available for professional musicians interested in expanding their careers, growing their artistic vision, reaching new audiences and honing their craft to sustain economic prosperity. Mentorship can often bridge the gap between vision and realization of goals in a profound way.
“Chase has served as a great example and a role model for me—he is all about making those that are around him better. I have never met someone with the kind of patience Chase has—he encourages me, and pushes me beyond what I believe are my limits. He has really helped me connect to the joy of playing and I am consistently excited for our lessons.”
“Chase is a master teacher. In every lesson, he has assessed my current ability, prescribed appropriate exercises to remedy shortcomings, and built upon material from previous lessons in a logical and methodical manner. Seemingly overnight I found myself improvising lines that were more melodically and harmonically pleasing than what I had been doing in the past. I still have plenty to work on, but I’m confident that with the depth of knowledge that Chase has, I’ll have plenty of room for continued growth.”
“Chase is by far one of the best instructors I’ve ever had. I’m blown away by how eloquent he is with explaining his thoughts and the material he presents. It’s easy to see his talents when you hear him play music, but the more I study and practice with him, the more I realize how deep they actually go. If you get the chance, you should definitely take some lessons.”
