Richard is a talented multi-instrumentalist musician and always a popular instructor at iJam Music School. He studied classical music performance and popular music at the California Institute of the Arts in Los Angeles, specializing in the french horn and guitar. For the past six years Richard has been teaching Rock & Roll History and Ensemble performance at several schools around the San Francisco Bay Area. When not performing as a session musician or teaching for iJam Music School, Richard can be seen playing his french horn with several orchestras in the San Jose region.

"I find it very fun to be able to go back and forth between musical genres -- from Bach and Mozart to Oasis and R.E.M. Yes, the performing is a blast, but sharing the fun with kids and new adult performers is where I have the most fun." - Richard Storbeck-
