About Silverwood Music

Nearly five decades of playing & teaching.

Bruce brings nearly five decades of performance and teaching experience to every lesson. He has guided students of every age — from complete beginners to seasoned players refining their craft.

His philosophy is that music is a lifelong journey of discipline, creativity, and joy. Lessons combine sound technique with a clear understanding of what you are playing, so each student gains the skills to express themselves with confidence — whether at home, in a jam session, or on stage.

Lessons are tailored to your goals, pace, and musical interests — with patient, structured guidance from the very first lesson and practical performance skills that prepare you to play confidently with others.
