About Carlos
Hello. I am a professional harmonica player, singer and bandleader with decades of experience as a performer and instructor. I can help with the basics as well as intermediate and advanced levels of harmonica playing. I can also help performance tips and repertoire development. My lessons are on-line only. I am a retired high school and college teacher. Many of my students have become active performers and have gained from the health benefits of playing harmonica as well. I can definitely help to achieve your musical goals
When I first started teaching harmonica - there were very few teachers. I was primarily self-taught. People would ask me at performances if I gave lessons. I took on a few students, but my teaching skils improved a lot more after I started teaching computers at Adult School and High School. I realized how much I enjoyed teaching. I also began a more serious study of the harmonica
I have studied at the California Jazz Academy in Berkeley as well as a Master Class with classicsal chromatic harmonica artist Robert Bonfiglio at Stanford University and private lessons with jazz harmonica player and recording artist Donald Bailey. I am a former faculty member at the Oakland Public Conservatory of Music and at StageBridge Performance Academy for Seniors in Oakland, CA. I am a retired high school teacher (computers) and college instructor (history of jazz and blues). My jazz and blues performance skills were acquired through over 50 years of working in bands as a harmonica player, singer, recording / touring artist and bandleader.

I answer any questions they may have about the harmonica, different types, where to purchase one. Ask what style or genre of music they are interested in. Suggest what type of harmonica they should consider using, especially as a beginner.
A wide range. As young as 10 - as old as 85. Students with respiratory illnesses. Retired seniors that always wanted to play harmonica. Students already playing harmonica in bands but wanted to improve their performance skills and develop their repertoire
Be honest about your skill level. Think about what kind of music you want to play or songs you want to learn. Think about artists you like that you may want to emulate.
A recent television show in the city of Manila, Philippines where I spoke about the harmonica and gave a performance.
A nightclub performance with an excellent jazz band where one of my students joined me on stage. I also had several students in the audience.
