ABOUT THE TEACHER
PROFESSIONAL BIO
Thanks to his parents, Alex began his studies in classical piano when he was only four years old, ingraining his love for music deep in his soul. His early studies with Russian native, Aza Boguslavskiy, led him to compete at a very young age in annual, in-state competitions. He received top ratings in local and state-wide competitions from the Georgia Teachers Association and Georgia Music Educators Association.
He went on to further his studies in college with Ike Stubblefield, a modern master of the Hammond B3 organ, who’s played keyboards with the Motown review, including the Four Tops, The Temptations, Marvin Gaye, and a long list of noteworthy acts.
Graduating from Georgia State University, Alex completed a Bachelor’s of Interdisciplinary Studies in Media Entrepreneurship focusing on Music Technology. Alex has performed at the 20th Annual Ultra Music Festival with live act ‘Kevens‘ and resides as the band’s professional touring keyboardist.
Even before his formal education in music, straight from school, Alex started a progressive, ambient rock band and toured the United States for seven years performing 75+ shows a year. An accomplished vocalist, Alex has been singing all his life and is currently working on his first solo album. His voice has been featured in countless choral groups ranging from 60+ ensembles, quartets, chamber choruses, and acapella groups.
Alex hosts a monthly radio show, DreamChaser Radio, DJ-ing on the leading worldwide Electronic Music Internet Radio Broadcast, AfterHours FM.
Whether you are looking to perfect your skills or you are just getting started, Alex can provide you with the expert direction for your individual needs. Alex says, “I cannot imagine life without music and sharing my passions and expertise with my students. This is where my heart is in teaching. Music has the power to build strong personal character skills and the power to unite complete strangers. With the right foundation and instructor, I know music can be played and enjoyed by all.”
