As a lifelong musician, Geoff has studied guitar with some of the world’s best acoustic and electric players.  Over the last 30 years, he has performed as both a soloist and a lead guitarist.  Geoff is also a published, award-nominated composer with degrees in Orchestration and Scoring for Film and TV. 

Lessons are available to all ages for nylon string, steel-string acoustic, and electric guitar in addition to music composition and production using a fully equipped guitar recording and film-scoring studio. 

Guitar lessons are geared toward student interests with an emphasis on technique, practice strategy, and proficiency.  Rock, Prog/Alt Rock, Classical, Folk, Heavy Metal, Blues, New Age Fingerstyle, Neo-Classical, and other genres are available.  Video and audio recording capabilities are included. 

Composition and production lessons utilizing Logic Pro (Apple) are also available to students.  This includes access to professional-standard orchestral and hybrid scoring instruments.  Lessons are designed to establish proficiency with Logic Pro and to create a strong foundation for composing multi-instrumented music through the application of theory, orchestration, and writing technique. 

Geoff teaches in his state-of-the-art home studio in Niwot.  This is an exceptional instruction room and learning environment that is equipped with professional instruments, hardware, software, and related audio equipment.  Students have access to a wide range of tools that will advance their learning and proficiency as musicians. 

Music can be a life-long gift.  The goal is to place students in a creative and supportive environment where they can have fun, pursue their passion, develop their skills, and build confidence.  All ages are welcome.
