Nicholas B

Instruments: Clarinet Music

Hello! I am a professional clarinetist originally from Portland, ME. I specialize in orchestral repertoire, however my career has allowed for solo engagements as well as extensive chamber music across North America and Europe. I currently serve as the Principal Clarinet of the New Bedford Symphony Orchestra and Phoenix, as well as Second/Bass Clarinet with Boston Lyric Opera. I strive to maintain relevance within my own playing while modeling it after clarinet icons throughout the generations, namely: Thomas Martin, Harold Wright, Daniel Bonade, Stanley Hasty, Larry Combs, and Robert Marcellus.

Michael J

Instruments: Piano Organ

I received my formal training in music at the University of New Hampshire, having earned a Bachelor of Music degree in Music Theory and Composition and a Master of Science degree in Music Education. Most of my career in music education was spent in the classroom. I was very passionate about discovering and meeting the needs of my students, always striving to teach the whole person. I considered myself a talent scout, never missing an opportunity to encourage any glimmer of talent at the piano that I saw waiting to blossom. Read More

Instruments: Piano Music

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 24years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 11years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele

For young beginners of piano, I start with Edna Mae Burnam's Step By Step Book 1, as it begins right away with basic reading of notes and music. From there, I progress into the Faber Piano Adventures Series. Adults will start with the Alfred Adult Piano Course. Voice students are welcome to choose one song each cycle, while I choose two. It's important to me that they get to express themselves and what they like, while also learning new pieces for their repertoire. Read More

Sean P

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet

Teaching for me is the difference between passion and disaster. With the right push, anyone can feel the need to play music. Music isn't supposed to be intended for a chosen few. My first teachers really engrained that into my mind when I first started learning. Through this, I have learned to create an environment where there are no mistakes, only chances to learn. It if very hard to continue in something so subjective, like music, constantly berating ones self. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Eamon S

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Mandolin Fiddle Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I have a hunger to learn what I like the sound of. Because of this, I have picked up many Instruments that are found in the Celtic music tradition as well as many others.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style of music would have to be Celtic music. I grew up playing it with friends and family, so it has become a part of who I am.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I don't think I could do anything outside of the arts. If not a musician, I would pursue acting, comedy, or perhaps writing. I love to cook, so perhaps I would consider being a chef. It's all about being a creative. I believe in order to truly experience life, you need to experience the sweet satisfaction of creating something.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I sit down, set a timer for at least 30 minutes, and play through my latest or favorite piece along with a metronome. I start the metronome slowly and work up speed over time.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
the hardest thing to master is a truly effective practice method. Just like anything else, it requires a routine to be successful. Developing routines is a very hard skill to master in my opinion.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My father loved Rock & Roll, so i followed suit. We would jam for hours when I was as young as 8 years old. I just loved being able to sing and play my favorite songs whenever I wanted.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
In 2016 I was flown across the Atlantic to perform at the Largest Celtic Music Festival in the world, Celtic Connections. In 2019 I played on stage with one of my greatest heroes, Liz Carroll.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first Fiddle Teacher snapped me out of my nervousness by putting the fiddle in my hands and giving me cold hard facts: that if I wanted to learn I needed to play my very first notes, even if they didn't sound good. She played along with me slowly which greatly reinforced my confidence.

When will I start to see results?
If your heart is in it, you could be playing music in some small way in as little as one month or less. All it takes is the will to learn and a love for music.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Growing up, I payed Celtic style guitar with friends or at events purely for the love of it. Over time it became clear that this was something I could do professionally as people started to pay me for the music I gave them.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
