Bassist + educator
Ed Fleischman has been actively freelancing in the New York area for many years. He studied bass at Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers, and went on to pursue jazz studies with Todd Coolman. He has performed with members of NJ Symphony Orchestra and Jazz at Lincoln Center. His focus is on exploring the deep musical traditions of jazz, classical, and the blues. As an educator he has taught at all levels of music, K-12. He maintains a private studio in Morristown, NJ
I have over 25 years of experience as a teacher of individual students and elementary, middle and high school orchestra.
I utilize a student centered approach. I teach from beginner to advanced levels. The first lessons are engaged in getting to know the student and tailoring instruction to the learners needs.
I strongly feel that the first few lessons must be in person. However, as the teacher and student get to know each other, future lessons can be a combination of in person and online.
