Music Lessons in Greenmead, CA

Instruments: Piano

Everyone learns differently, so I tailor my lessons to meet the needs and goals of each individual. In any case, regular practice and lessons are crucial to success. I encourage the parents of young students to be involved in their kids' progress to help establish good habits. With adults, it's all about developing a regular practice schedule that they can stick to realistic goals. I like to spend lesson time addressing at least 2 pieces of music, some sort of technical skill, and occasionally incorporating games and listening exercises. Read More

However, there is a style that is much more ancient and at the same time current and happening in approach. The music of Australia, Africa, the Americas, South East Asia, and in some cases the folk music of Europe all rely on a tradition of improvisation and general forms that are passed down through the generations and influenced by the environment; so there is no specific composer. I seek to begin a canon of music that is inherent in this particular approach of providing form to the appropriately trained performers; this form is based off of scientific and natural phenomenon that we experience in the regions of the world where circular breathing has been developed: very unique ones at that.
