Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
Michael's approach to voice training is grounded in physiological and developmentally appropriate techniques. While this does not necessarily preclude any particular style of music, he believes very strongly that vocal health and well-being should take precedence in one's study of singing and that it is good for students to gain a diverse musical experience.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
For beginning students I try to start with the essentials. It is important for young children to become familiar with the instrument, the proper way to hold an instrument. The proper way to sit when playing or stand while singing. Fundamentals at the earliest ages are essential. Practicing the fundamentals leads to success which leads to a desire to learn more about the instrument. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I have also performed with the prestigiousCincinnati May Festival Chorus and had concert appearancesat Disney Hall in Los Angeles, New World Stages in NewYork City, The Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford, England,among many others. In addition, Rebecca I am a clinician for many master classes- this year teaching and performingat Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington. Most recently I have enjoyed working for Disney and singing back-up for Kevin Spacey! Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello
My first experience giving private lessons was at a summer music camp right before my senior year in high school. I have consistently taught piano and cello students for over 10 years independently and as an affiliate of local music stores. My goal as a teacher is for each of my students to make gradual progress each week as they become more proficient with their exercises and music. I hold at least 2 recitals a year which I strongly encourage everyone to take part in. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute
I played music all my life. I began to play the flute at the age of 9 years old and the piano at around 12. I graduated from Washington Adventist University with a degree in music performance. I have performed with the New England Symphonic Ensemble in various countries all over the world including England, Thailand, Greece, Italy, Mexico, Jamaica, Caymen Islands and South Africa. I have performed with the Mid America productions concert series in Carnegie Hall, New York. Read More

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren't a musician, I would be back in the advertising agency business.
It allow me to write jingles, create videos that combine audio, music and video to make a more dynamic communication piece that is more memorable. Now, I would like to do more Pro bono projects for needy charities. It is important for us all to participate in our community. What better way that through music, especially from my students. I am fortunate to enjoy playing several instruments, some not as well as others, but music is about how you pass along emotion, not just notes,
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream piece to perform would be a concert of self written songs that communicate emotion to the audience, enjoyment of the musicality, harmonies and syncopated sounds that together make a very enjoyable time for the audience. I have to tell you it is really fun to play in front of people. Like anything, it takes a little time and effort to learn anything. If it is fun along the way, you will never stop doing it.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
The Suzuki method of teaching is closest to my style of teaching. Let's play. I'll show how to participate musically, sometimes very simple, but we are playing. And enjoying play. After all, playing is called that for a reason, and that's play. Some people like note playing, others syncopated chording. I like group teaching as it allows the student to learn to play with others, to keep time, to be on time, and a few mistakes don't matter. 'Group play shows that mistakes in a group are barely noticed and not the end of the world.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I like to evaluate the persons weekly practice after a fun warm up. Then talk what the student has enjoyed from listening to the radio or other means.
Together we might listen to the song as a candidate for a future song to learn. If the song is in the students ability range, we might find what the student is willing to do to learn a part of the song, however easy.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I was fortunate to have an early learning in piano, which gave me an excellent basis for music in any form. Whether I was writing an advertising jingle, reading the music from my church hymnal, or playing in a band with friends for fun, or professional for money. Music is more than a hobby. It is part of my life. I was apprehensive about singing at first, now I enjoy singing, and am not afraid to sing out loud, or in front of people. I believe anyone needs a basic understanding of music, but the rest does not have to be hard,
