Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching piano for more than 25 years and my students have been prize winners in local competitions and festivals as performers and composers. Former students have gone on to attend universities such as Cornell, Columbia, Brown and other well known colleges. I am an experienced church organist and accompanist for vocal and instrumental soloists as well as choirs. I am an experienced chamber musician and am the founder and pianist of the Papillons Piano Trio which performs locally. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Organ
The best part of teaching for me is seeing students transform from unsure beginners to confident musicians with enthusiasm and passion for their own chosen taste in music. I know students can drive the lessons with their choices, so I let them select music that will keep them coming back for more challenges. Even still, I want them to have the exposure to diverse training and music styles to expand their own style. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Trumpet Recorder Fiddle
My goal is always to take students where they are: beginning, intermediate or advanced and help them discover and develop their own love of music. I do this through introducing music that develops their skill and gives them the satisfaction of playing music that they enjoy. It is not only about playing scales and such but learning to play musically so that people they may play for in the future will enjoy listening to them and they will enjoy sharing what they have learned.

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Bass Guitar Synthesizer Euphonium French Horn Tuba Music
I strongly believe that a well-rounded music education helps a player to become a more confident, musical, and an emotionallyyaware musician. As such, I like to give my students small assignments focused on topics besides just performance, such as Music Theory and Aural Skills exercises. Of course, I will always move at the pace the student needs but I also know (from personal experience) that a nudge in the right direction can be priceless. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard
My approach to teaching is very student-centric. I firmly believe that every student has unique talents and insights. I strive to find the right balance for every student, between their personal goals and what areas of opportunity for growth I see for them. It is my mission to help every student get the most out of every lesson, and leave knowing that they have discovered something new about themselves and their ability to connect with music. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Hello! My name is Dahlia, and I am a passionate instructor and lover of piano. I am a recent college grad from UC Santa Cruz who studied learning and memory. Ive also been playing piano for 15 years and trained in ABRSM, which is an international music examination board. I participated in a couple piano competitions and have lots of experience performing. I was even a keyboardist in a band when I was a kid! Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums
Piano : All piano students will begin by learning about scales and scale theory. This includes scales learned withing the Classical idiom as well as the Contemporary music idiom which includes all styles of music. Students regardless of their preferred style of music will be encouraged to learn some elementary classical music in order to facilitate and reinforce good technique, reading and interpretation. Drums: All drum students will begin by learning about stick control and proper posture. Read More
Instruments: Bass Guitar Double Bass
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
The main book I teach out of for upright bass is F. Simandl New Method for Double Bass. I am a little more regimented with teaching double bass because it is more demanding instrument to learn as it requires more rigorous training. It is important to take your time learning each position and working your way up the neck. However, once enough proficiency is attained I begin to jump ahead and incorporate other advanced techniques to paint the bigger picture. When it comes to the bass guitar, I have created my own method of teaching which I begin with a student assessment. Sometimes students have advanced technique but lack the knowledge of neck, as well as their chord/scale theory, and in this case I will have the student go back and solidify their fundamentals.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
My practice is mostly jazz related which covers a lot of ground and naturally strengthens all aspects music, including other styles of music due to its broad harmonic spectrum of musical language. More specifically most of my practice is tune based practice, so this will include transcribing, jazz language, as well as technical exercises and improvising. Practice isn't making music so it is important to put your practice into play. You cant only practice in a vacuum for the rest of your life, so it is very important to put your skills to use and jam and/or gig with other musicians and artists.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor Degree in Music Performance from Musicians Institute in Los Angeles, CA. I chose this degree because I have been preforming music since I was 8 years old. I began my musical journey by singing in a choir and eventually started playing bass guitar when I was 12 years old. I continued actively playing through my teens in jazz bands as well as other bands I formed with my friends. I realized when I was in 8th grade that I wanted to pursue music as a career, and ever since then that became my main focus and haven't stopped since!
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I don't have a dream piece to perform. There is so much music out there and I enjoy playing all different kinds. It can get a little dreary playing the same tunes over and over again so that why I get excited to perform and/or write new music. However, I really do enjoy playing some of my favorite jazz tunes. The thing with jazz is it never gets old. The tune is a vehicle for improvisation, and with improvisation, the playing of yourself and whoever you're playing with is going to come out differently every time, which keeps things fresh and interesting.
