BIO

Gordon has over 10 years teaching experience, working with students of all ages and interests. He writes and performs original music, blending progressive rock, jazz, songwriting, and classical composition. He performs both as a solo artist and with bands and ensembles. He experiments with extended techniques on the piano by muting strings, controlling the relapse of the dampers, and scraping spoons against distorted electric piano strings. More recently he has begun exploring microtonal composition, playing chords and melodies using notes in between the usual 12 notes of the piano.



Gordon’s teaching style is eclectic and individualized. Most beginners will start with the Piano Adventures lesson books, which offer a fun and diverse selection of music, both classical and modern. Students learn essential technique to create musical sounds with ease. They also learn the fundamental theory to conceptualize and communicate their musical ideas. He also helps students hone their creativity through songwriting and composition. Whether students are preparing for a college audition, playing keyboards at church, or simply impressing their friends, lessons are centered on achieving their goals.
