Last, but not least, I have completed all my Army School of Music training receiving a commandant award.

Studies with Sigurd Rascher
I was fortunate to have studied saxophone with Sigurd Rascher who taught me to question everything, and marvel at the wonders of nature questioning how was everything made that way with such perfection and sense. How can the engineering of nature be applied to learning music or anything for that matter? This was such an amazing philosophical point of view, which has formed my essential questioning of how to motivate others to think for themselves and empowered to learn. Through my studies, I was able to learn first hand about the works written for Rascher, which are staples in the classical saxophone repertoire, and learn what details the composers discussed with Rascher during the composition process of the works written for him. music production scoring music film composer
