My Musical Influences

I love jazz-- Dave Brubeck in particular.
As to country, I have multiple favorites.
In classical I really enjoy Beethoven and Mozart.

The first person I wanted to be able to play like was my accordion teacher, Bob Deccio and at an early age I decided that teaching private lessons was really what I wanted to do because he was such an awesome teacher. Fun loving and very instructional while giving me lots of room to learn to create and enjoy music. That has been my goal as I teach my own students many years later.
