Richard Dorotheo IV is a multi-instrumentalist who has been passionately teaching music lessons for over 17 years.  After attending Berklee College of Music on scholarship, he toured the United States playing in bands, had songs placed on radio, & recorded in large studios.  But as always, there is much more to learn.

Richard has always held special interest in the music developmental experience.  Through his education, industry experiences, & personal musical training he has created a pedagogy that offers unique perspectives into the way we understand Melody, Harmony, & Rhythm.  In addition, his customized lesson plans and “no-holds-barred” approach to genre & learning style ensures that no student is left in the dust.

“When the student is ready, the teacher appears.  When the student is truly ready… the teacher disappears.” - Lao Tzu
