Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Every student learns at a different pace and many students learn differently. Music is an aural art form and I've found that many younger students haven't always heard a lot of music. I like to incorporate listening and appreciation in those cases. I like to encourage creativity and share ideas that show the student they can create music of their own. I like to see the student enjoy what they are doing and I like to point out their growth, especially when they feel frustrated. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have played the piano since childhood and specialize in the classical repertoire, as I believe it offers the most comprehensive method of attaining instrumental mastery. However, I will not hesitate to use any material that interests a student, in any genre, provided sheet music is available. I can play jazz and improvise fluently and have also played in blues bands, but prefer to devote myself to classical music. I play the guitar at an advanced level and for the last seven years have written about a great variety of Western music for Fanfare Magazine, contributing full length interviews, often with famous musicians, and CD and DVD reviews.

Classical Music,Moe believes music is a gift and should be shared with everyone. He provides every opportunity to his students to perform. In addition to recitals, Moes students often perform throughout the community at various events. This not only spreads music and allows the children to share their talents, but also instills in them the importance of giving back to the community. Moe's piano students have been featured at the following locations: Cabrini Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation (New York, NY) CareOne at The Cupola: Senior Care Community (Ridgewood, NJ) The Manhattan-Bronx Festival: NY Music Teachers Association (New York, NY) Mill Garden: An Assisted Living Residence (Midland Park, NJ) Pine Rest: Senior Care Community (Ridgewood, NJ) Ridgewood Center: AGenesis HealthCare Facility(Ridgewood, NJ) Village Nursing Home (New York, NY) "Teaching piano to the children, and my students performing in my community, is my response to violence in our world, to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before." - Moe Read More

I began teaching during my time at College. I encourage younger students to practice every day, even if it's just for 15-20 minutes. Practicing at the same time every day is essential for young students; this builds a habit within the student's routine. Younger students need a stronger routine to thrive and without the structure of practicing every day, there is less progress each week. I currently work at two music schools in Westchester county; Read More

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music does run in my family. My grandfather was a well-know Jazz musician photographer. We grew up listening to jazz and classical musical day and night. My brother became a well know Jazz musician and teacher in San Francisco. He plays Clarinet, Sax and flute. He is a recording artist and travels all over the world spreading jazz from place to place. He is the conductor of a Cartoon Jazz Band, Saxophone Sextet and two Big Bands.
I travelled the classical route beginning in Jr High School. After my college studies, I went to work with The New York City Opera with The wonderful Beverly Sills. Following that, I started my own Acapella chorus called “Ah-Capella” which performed in various NYC venues. Broadway then was my calling, where I stayed in the producing and casting sector for a decade. i have been teaching Voice and Piano privately for two decades. I also sing in The Cecilia Chorus of New York which performs twice a year in Carnegie Hall. I am a Section Leader with this extraordinary chorus which I have been sing with for nine years.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing about being a singer/musician, is that every day is different. Since singers depend on their breath to support their tone, we must treat out instrument, which are our bodies, with great care. Humidity, cold, performing environment, all play into how we may breathe and produce sound. As a pianist as well, I know when I need to play an A, it will be there on the piano every time. Singers must warm up and nurture their instrument to the best of their ability so they can produce that A everyday.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Look forward to practicing. It is a wonderful investment in your musicianship. It is time you deserve to focus on your craft. Isolate the specified measures that need the extra time. Repetition is key. Set a goal, i.e, “ I will play these four measures perfectly five consecutive times.” If you make an error during the third time, you must start from the first time. After you have completed this goal, implement it into the piece and your practice time will be golden.
