Details:
Nathan has recently found a serious passion, performing solo, with an acoustic guitar. Influenced by an array of musicians, he fused many styles including jazz, blues, funk, rock, finger style, and classical to create his new sound. The mood ranges from a hungry rage to a sensuous romance, tapping into every emotion in between. In January of 2005 Nathan recorded his debut solo CD, "For Your Ears Only".
To see a live performance is spectacular, truly full of energy and animation. He plays with fierce intensity, disregarding traditional playing. The music is polyphonic; many intricate parts including melody, harmonic progressions, bass lines, as well as, percussion all performed simultaneously. He is obsessed - bending and pulling, banging and tapping, plucking and strumming the guitar, stretching its capabilities.
Nathan started playing guitar with the inspiration and guidance from his Dad at the age of 9. Since then he has participated in numerous school band programs ranging from elementary to high school. After years of practice, and awarded a full scholarship, Nathan attended Wayne State University, graduating in 2002, with a bachelors in Jazz Performance.
Nathan has taught private lessons at Gus Zoppi Music Center in Sterling Heights since 1994, averaging 50 students weekly. His students have achieved many awards including the National Championship of the American Guild of Music competition 3 times and runner up twice with many other 1st place awards in various categories. Many of his students have gone on to study at the college level, some with full scholarships. 5 of his students have gone on to become teachers themselves. Many of his students have gone on to make a career out of music performance.
Nathan is also the director of the program at Arts Academy in the Woods, a charter high school in Warren, MI. The curriculum includes theory, technique, writing and arranging, creative thinking and much more.
