Bio:

 

Ethan is a professional musician in the Greater Toronto Area who has been teaching, performing, and writing in his field for the past 10 years.  He strives to be a creative and fearless voice on the upright bass and in the music that he helps create. His enduring passion for the art of music performance is evident in his playing, which you can find in many different formats and bands. He has a diverse and adaptable artist who is always looking for new challenges and is looking to help bring new challenges/adventures to the people he performs with, teaches, and enjoys company with.

 

Teaching Style:

 

The main goal is to enjoy the instrument/music making process. The process of developing this will change, form student to student, but the same principles will always apply. For beginner students we will learn about the music we enjoy listening to and learn how we can translate that to our instrument. Starting with learning melodies that we have all heard and grew up hearing and using methods to help us internalize the music. Eventually using the same methods to learn and develop others song we'd like to learn, or songs we and writing/composing. 

Intermediate - Advanced students will create a instrument warm-up/work out that can be done at the beginning of every practice session to work on developing our muscle memory and technique. While working though these materials we will also learn how our instrument fits into the bigger picture of the music/band, whether it be through learning how theory applies to the instrument/song or the roll the instrument plays coordinating with other instruments. 

With all levels, we will develop a strong repertoire/list of songs that can be performed, either in the comfort of your home, or eventually in front a massive audience! While always having fun!

 

Teaching method:

​

We will start by accessing the students level and what type of goals they have for the instrument. Don't have any goals or don't know what music you like? No worries! We will help you
