Most important of all, I'm friendly, patient and I genuinely enjoy teaching and helping my rock/pop/jazz piano students realize their musical potential.

Sometimes my students are beginners in their 20s or 30s, sometimes they are professional club DJs, songwriters or West End musical performers needing to be accompanied. Here's a typical comment from a student:

Hi Danny, I wanted to say a thank you to you. About three or maybe four years ago I took some lessons with you (maybe about 8 lessons or so).Anyhow I always remember your love of the piano and the joy of playing and that has helped me get daily joy from playing. So your spirit of enthusiasm has helped inspire me to just be curious and adventurous with playing. It has positively influenced the quality of my life .Many many thanks
Ann Walsh

It is not uncommon that a beginner student will have lost interest in piano from their early teens onwards.
I am also Head of Music Technology at Woodhouse College in Finchley, with additional responsibilites for schools across Barnet.
I've performed extensively at such well-known venues as the Jazz Cafe and the Mean Fiddler in London.

I use a hands-on, fun and practical approach.

I have been a music technology lecturer for 13 years and have played piano for 28 years, gigging, performing and composing.

I'm Grade 8 piano/clarinet, have a BA(Hons) and MA in music and performance related fields. I've composed music for adverts, short films and the theatre.

I also offer the option of teaching music technology, instructing on software packages such as Cubase, Logic Audio, Pro Tools, Wavelab, Sound Forge etc. I have a mixer, sound modules and extensive music software for the project recording studio on which I teach and help music industry clients develop projects.

I am also a founding member of an off-West End theatre company and have composed extensively for the stage, so also have much experience working with theatre musicians and singers.
 
I generally teach at my home in Crouch End, North London, or occasionally travel to the student's house around the Finchley, Muswell Hill, Hampstead, Camden and Islington areas.

 Danny's lessons, 24-01-2022 05:04PM

By: Edwin Din

Really enjoy it. Not just dot reading, but chords, songs I like to play and deeper understanding of how to gig with a band etc etc. Also has a lot of experience in the music world and the music business. Easy to chat to too.
Definitely recommend.

Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks (previously CRB checks)
The Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) and the Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) have merged to become the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). CRB checks are now called DBS checks.

A DBS check may be needed for: certain jobs or voluntary work - eg working with children or in healthcare applying to foster or adopt a child There are different rules for getting a criminal record check in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Who can ask for a DBS check An employer can ask for a DBS check for certain roles. DBS eligibility guidance lists most roles that are eligible for a check. However, the guidance isnít comprehensive so contact DBS if unsure. Applicants (job candidates) canít do a criminal records check on themselves, but they can request a ëbasic disclosureí.

How to get a DBS check
  • The employer gets an application form from DBS or an umbrella body (a registered body that gives access to DBS checks).
  • The employer gives the applicant the form to fill in and return to them along with documents proving their identity.
  • The employer sends the completed application form to DBS or their umbrella body.
  • DBS sends a certificate to the applicant. The employer will have to ask the applicant to see the certificate.
If the applicant has subscribed to the DBS update service, the employer can check their certificate online.Basic disclosure If applicants need to run a check on themselves, they can get a ëbasic disclosureí with details of any unspent convictions from Disclosure Scotland (they can do this anywhere in the UK).Types of criminal records check There are 3 types of check. The employer or organisation running the check should provide the applicant with more information about the level of check required. Criminal record check applicants must be 16 or over.

Standard

This will check for spent and unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands and final warnings, and will take about 2 weeks.

Enhanced

This includes the same as the standard check plus any additional information held by local police thatís reasonably considered relevant to the workforce being applied for (adult, child or ëotherí workforce). It takes about 4 weeks.

Applicants and employers can use the DBS update service to keep a certificate up to date or carry out checks on a potential employeeís certificate.
