Keith Ridenhour

I switched from Trumpet to Saxophone major in college and went from not knowing how to put a sax together to playing professionally in St. Louis in 5 years. So, I really focus on the students goals and try to make it happen sooner rather than later. I also bring the real world of gigging and playing in public to my students. They learn how to play the tools to perform at a high level but I also show how to prepare for and get gigs. I teach Soprano, Alto and Tenor saxophones both classically and jazz instruction. I have taken up the clarinet after a long layoff and getting lessons myself from a local pro. I can teach that up to a college level. I have a few openings left in my schedule.
