EDDY OLEYNIK — CLARINET, SAXOPHONE
Eddy has been teaching music since 2018 and studying piano since he was 5. He graduated from Sacramento State University with a Bachelor's in Jazz studies. He has performed with jazz big bands, combo groups, vocalists, and also played solo gigs. He started piano by playing classical music, but opened himself up to playing in musicals, orchestras, and church services as well. Eddy has also been proficient in playing Clarinet and Saxophone since he was 12 years old. He has taught private lessons for Piano and Woodwind for 7 years and has also recently started directing Band programs for elementary and middle schools.
Although his musical journey began by playing classical music, he found his passion after being exposed to improvisation, which he dubs as "learning to instantly create soundscapes through your musical intuition." His teaching style revolves around firstly discovering the student's goals, and then collectively creating realistic plans toward achieving those goals with hands-on and visual resources.
