About Keith

My objective as a teacher is to help you to become the best musician that you can be. To achieve this, I draw from over 20 years of experience performing multiple musical instruments live and in recording sessions, in many stages worldwide, and with a variety of music groups. As a composer and arranger, my credits include: - Writing music performed by the GRAMMY Award nominee One O'Clock Lab Band, featuring also GRAMMY Award nominee saxophonist Melissa Aldana. - Arranging music for The Villalobos Brothers. - Arranging and orchestrating music for the film "Eloísa Díaz: Ciencia Urgente," by Alameda Memoria. - Composing and arranging music for Sexto Piso, a Latin American folk and popular music ensemble winner of two grants from the Chilean Ministry of Culture. - Composing and arranging music for La Chile Big Band. - Arranging music for the Chilean website “El Guillatún.” Other artists I have written music for include: - Hardy Llorca. - Edgardo Benedetti. - Kristiana Roemer. - Ipshita Roy. My experience as a teacher includes: - Teaching Assistant of Jazz Arranging, Jazz Library and Jazz Lecture Series at the University of North Texas. - Grader for Music Theory at the University of North Texas. - Primary Instructor of Saxophone at the evening music program of the University of Chile. - Ensemble Coach at the evening music program of the University of Chile. - Piano, Saxophone, Guitar, Flute, Drums and Composition Teacher for multiple schools of the New York City area.
