I work mainly with intermediate and advanced saxophonists who already have some technical and reading background and want to go deeper into improvisation, interpretation and overall musical understanding.
— — —
Lessons focus on improvisation through scales, harmony, transcription and repertoire, always connected to real musical situations.
— — —
Technique, sound, articulation and reading are worked on as tools to support musical flow and clarity, not as isolated exercises.

Classes are structured but flexible, and adapted to each student’s goals, whether jazz performance, general interpretation or conservatory preparation.

Excellent! Gonzalo is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable music teacher . His lessons are both interesting and challenging and have guided me towards a more structured and targeted approach to my practice . I feel my sax improv skills are definitely improving with Gonzalos guidance .
- Chris is a great student. He’s been mostly self-taught for about 15 years and came to me for guidance and structure in his tenor sax practice.Gonzalo's response :
In just two lessons, he’s already made great progress. He’s positive, polite, and always punctual. I’m really looking forward to continuing our work together.
Perfect! I started training under Gonzalo after a 10 year break from saxophone playing. Our focus has been sound production and Jazz development. Gonzalo is an incredibly knowledgable and friendly instructor who brings a lot of enthusiasm and positivity to our lessons. As someone who has taught music before, I am very impressed with his natural teaching ability. His lessons are not formulaic but rather catered to your individual developmental needs. His approach inspires confidence yet I have felt a solid level challenge. I have progressed enormously since training with him and cannot recommend him enough as a saxophone instructor.
- Luke is a more advanced student who came to study jazz improvisation and develop his jazz sound on the tenor saxophone, coming from a primarily classical background. In just this first month of lessons, he has made significant progress, both musically and conceptually. He is highly motivated, open-minded, and brings a great attitude to every lesson. I’m very happy with his progress so far and look forward to continuing our work together.Gonzalo's response :
Perfect! Gonzalo provides professional and clear instruction. He is patient and understanding and very easy to work with. I highly recommend Gonzalo!
- Michelle had played the saxophone for several years but had been away from the instrument for about 20 years. She contacted me to work on reading skills, sound, and interpretation as she returned to playing in an ensemble. After more than four lessons together, I’m very happy with her progress and with our work. She is punctual, friendly, and highly committed, and I truly enjoy our lessons and the material we cover.Gonzalo's response :
Perfect! Great experience

Perfect! Gonzalo was amazing he helped my son with his NYSSMA level 5 performance of Sonata In C Minor.
He was very good at seeing where he needed help even sending additional assignments a few times for him to work on in between lessons.
We would recommend him to any student who wants to improve their Playing.Perfect! My experience with Gonzalo has been outstanding!! He is very professional, and *extremely* competent, in both his playing, and his teaching (and its also a bonus that he is a sweet guy! He didn't watch the clock at all, when giving his lesson). My son was super inspired after just 1 instruction! My son will definitely be coming back for more! Thank you Gonzalo!

Gonzalo's classes are solid! He's punctual and helps me hit my musical goals. :)
Gonzalo's saxophone classes have been instrumental in refining my sound, technique, and reading skills. Through tailored exercises, my tone has improved, and my technique has become more precise. His emphasis on sight-reading has also been beneficial. I'd recommend Gonzalo for anyone seeking practical saxophone improvement
