Instruments: Piano Drums Keyboard
I tend to edit my teaching style based on how successfully my students meet their goals. I honestly love teaching young and beginning students because they're an absolute blank slate, something I do not take lightly. Having fun and establishing a strong practice routine is paramount with younger students. I emphasize listening to records/music with all students but especially with more intermediate to advanced students. If I have a student that wants to become a more competent jazz player I'll try to recommend some famous records with tunes that are commonly played. Read More

One of my important goal of teaching is to teach my student that how to enjoy the music and how to tell their own story through music. 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.
