Plays and Guitar

About

Vlad has been playing acoustic and electric guitar for about 20 years, mostly with bands, for churches and my own projects. He can also play percussions and drums. As a self taught musician he had stayed exposed to different genres of music in order to keep learning.

Vlad raised a band from teenagers who attended creative camps by teaching them to play guitar, bass, drums and keyboard.
When Vlad lived in NYC he did music therapy for adults with special needs - his job was to engage the participants to enjoy music through listening and dancing while they would use various percussions.

Vlad was the music director for a day program in NYC where he was in charge of a band of young adults with special needs. This group had a few successful local performances in NYC's colleges.

Currently, Vlad co-leads a drama/music class in SJC, group home, once a week.
