Saxophone Lessons in Lower Manhattan, NY
(212) 537-6746
Taking private saxophone lessons with a teacher one on one has advantages over taking them in a class setting. In a classroom setting with other students you can easily be left behind. With one on one saxophone lessons your teacher gets to know you on a more personal level and can help you directly with your practice of saxophone technique.

Student Reviews
Jon is a very patient instructor and a genuine pleasure to work with. He is very accommodating with the time that novices like myself need when practicing. He has a wealth of knowledge that is more than eager to share with you. Always a pleasure!
Ameet Barve - NYC, NY Teacher: Jon D.About the Saxophone
Since 1920, nearly all saxophones have 'key touches' (smooth decorative pieces placed where the fingers will touch the instrument) made of either plastic or mother of pearl.
