Euan Tandiono
"Euan is not only an incredibly skilled bass player, but a kind and excellent teacher. He will meet you at your level and you will with no doubt feel improvement in your playing!" - Eli W.
Euan Tandiono is a graduate of UC Berkeley who delights in relating to students of all skill levels. He discovered his passion for the electric bass in high school while listening to pop, rock, indie, soul, and funk basslines. He soon learned a love for improvisation and became deeply involved with the jazz scene at UC Berkeley. While at UC Berkeley he played and performed in various ensembles including:
Ted Moore's Intermediate & Advanced Jazz Combo
AAPI Jazz Collective
Bits In The Basement (Video game jazz)
The Intermission Orchestra (Video game orchestra)
Improvisation in the Jazz Tradition
Spring Awakening - Pit orchestra
Cal Community Music
In his free time, Euan solders analog effects pedals and fixes his bandmates' gear... for fun! (Also, Euan thinks you should check out VGLeadSheets.com because video game music is fun and cool.)
"Euan was the most generous and patient teacher I have ever had. He not only listened carefully to what I struggled with but came up with ways that catered to my needs. He taught me the importance and beauty of sticking with a song over and over again and learning something new from it every time. Would recommend Euan to anyone who is ready to elevate their bass skills to a new level." - Lingye W.
