Friedrich Music

Introduction: I'm deeply passionate about learning and see myself as a lifelong student of music. Teaching is integral to my musical identity, allowing me to gain a profound understanding of effective practice through my ongoing work with students. Exploring the journey of skill improvement is a lifelong fascination, and I consider it a privilege to assist individuals in enhancing their musical connection through dedicated practice. I studied at Berklee College of Music before moving to Austin, Texas where I completed my undergraduate studied at UT Austin, earning a B.M. in Jazz Performance. During my time in Austin, I performed 150-200 dates a year in a number of different styles and ensembles. In 2017, I began teaching at Colorado Academy in Denver Colorado where I developed a guitar program from the ground up. During my tenure there, I taught well over 100 students, some of whom have gone on to pursue careers in music. In 2022 I released my first album as a leader titled "Human Resource" which is available on all streaming platforms. I am currently pursuing my masters in Jazz and Improvised music at the University of Washington where I also serve as a teaching assistant in Jazz History.
