      About Eric Gronneberg

      Eric Gronneberg
      Eric Gronneberg
      Music Teacher
      Location: Sunset Valley, TX
      Speaks: English
      Instructs: Bass Guitar, Clarinet, Flute, Guitar, Piano, Saxophone
      Education: A.A. in Music Composition – Austin Community College Currently completing a B.M. in Performance (Jazz Concentration) – Texas State University
      Performance Experience: With over 20 years of experience playing saxophone, I’ve performed in numerous college big bands and regularly played with small jazz combos. Beyond jazz, I am also a singer-songwriter and have played guitar in various rock bands throughout the years.
      Teaching Experience: I taught my first saxophone lesson eight years ago and have loved sharing my passion for music ever since. While living in Montana, I also taught preschool, giving me experience working with students of all ages.
      Teaching Philosophy: My approach to teaching is built on love, logic, and flexibility. Music should be inspiring—if a student isn’t connecting with what they’re playing, it’s time to adjust the approach. Every student learns differently, so I tailor each lesson to their unique needs. My goal is to help students practice more efficiently, encourage their individual self-expression, and foster a lifelong love of music.

      Get to know Eric Gronneberg

      As a passionate musician, I strongly believe music to be a powerful and universal language which can be an incredible form of expression among individuals. My name is Eric Gronneberg and I believe all people should be given the opportunity, regardless of their stage of life, to learn to play a musical instrument.

      I established my love for music while in high school where I was awarded the Louis Armstrong Jazz Award. I have played the saxophone for seventeen years and the guitar for ten. While playing in various and diverse musical groups, including the Top Jazz Ensemble at Montana State University in Bozeman and rock bands playing for local establishments, I was mentored by Professor Ryan Mattzinger. Matzinger is known to have worked with Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, Ike Turner and Sonny Rollins.

      I have always had very strong interpersonal connections with musicians in my community. Over the course of three years, I have taught weekly private saxophone lessons to a middle school student. I feel very proud of my student’s continuing progress and always look forward to our lessons. Working for a local preschool with students between the ages of three to five has also given me the opportunity to instill a devotion to teaching others the beauty of music.
      I intend to continue pursuing my love for music and instilling a lifelong form of expression among our youth.  I am currently finishing up my last year receiving my B.M. in Jazz Performance  at Texas State.  I look forward to helping you meet your musical goals.
