I'm Steven Hartman - a music teacher and performer.
I'm a private music teacher out of Camrose, Alberta, Canada. I teach drums, bass, and guitar. I'm a believer in teaching versatility in music - not just learning to play songs but learning how to play music.
Before I began studying music, I was an artist and actor. I enjoyed performing and memorizing scripts. In my grade school years I played saxophone and sang in many-a choirs both in school and with groups through my church. I participated in the Alberta Honour Choir in high school and played in almost every musical group I could in high school. In grade 11/12 I started beating the drums and experimenting with guitar. After high school I entered into a Bachelor of Music program at Augustana University College in Classical Performance - Voice. During my time in the program I started learning bass by joining a jazz combo requiring a bass playing. I've been teaching private music lessons since around 2003.
To the present - I am an avid bass player, drummer and guitarist. I play electric and double (upright) bass with the Battle River Big Band and drumset with a local jazz quartet ("The Steven Hartman Quartet"). I also play in a duo called "Hartman and Olson" with the superb Erik Olson (check his stuff out).
