Scholarship intended for one year ended up a 25 year tenure, teaching, performing in Vienna and raising a family. I returned to the US to become executive director of a music school in MN. I was able to start new after school music programs for elementary schools throughout the district, start an orchestra program and open a theater program for kids. Read More

Here are a couple of reviews from students: “Ian’s experience with Sebastian has been nothing short of wondrous. Sebastian has the unique ability to find a musical connection with a broad range of students, From prodigies to students like my son who simply want to know the joy of playing music. Sebastian is able to meet the students where he or she is at in their musical journey and coax that student to move forward at their own pace. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
In the voice studio I am a kind and nurturing teacher - no matter the age or level of the singer. Above all, I strive to instruct healthy, beautiful singing. I absolutely believe in choosing music for a student that will help improve specific areas of vocal technique, but also music about which the student feels passionate. Singing should feel like a release and it should be rewarding. I remember looking forward to voice lessons and getting so excited to watch my voice grow and get better. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
Throughout the past 10 years, I have taught neighborhood kids and friends how to play the piano both beginning and intermediately. I like to encourage everybody that consistency is the key to learning (for beginners). Not necessarily practicing for long periods of time, but frequently. Better to practice for 10-15 minutes three to five times per day than for an hour or two all at once. I've found that the best foundation comes from scales. Read More

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A practice is different according to the purpose. If you want to work for performance including concert or opera. You have to study a lots of things. For example, foreign diction (Italian, French, German etc.) are very important. Each language has a different accent and intonation. Those things should be trained many times. After that singers can be allowed to sing. Second, if singers want to practice their sound I strongly recommend to use natural voice through humming, lip trill, pure vowels.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I normally used to use a vocal pedagogy book as a reference. However, students do not need to use it. It will be used for making them understand specific terms. There are good example about our body. Also, the most useful information is that the book explains wrong information about teaching singer. It helps me to fix students who have bad habit. Second, for better understanding, I generally used video from youtube or NATS website (Nation Association of Teachers of Singing).
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I decided to study voice after praying a lots. During the prayer, God told me He wants me to praise Him. So, I was really inspired Him. That makes me to make strong decision.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
When I was young my goal was being a math teacher. So, if I didn't study music I might be a math teacher.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My music background is basically from church. So, I love to listen to christian music.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I can play several instruments. The first instrument was a piano. i started to learn it when I was really young. Other instruments are a guitar and a drum. I participated church band since I have been middle school student. I really enjoyed it as singing.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream role is Rigoletto in Opera "Rigoletto." It is hard to find title role for the baritone. This opera is one of them and require high technique. Furthermore, this opera have been loved by audiences in the world. Fortunately, I performed this opera a couple of years ago and I got good review by Twin Cities Art Reader. However, I didn't perform with orchestra. So, if I have one more chance to sing that role I want to perform with the orchestra.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
D.M.A. University of Minnesota, Voice performance
M.M. University of Texas at Austin, Voice performance
M.M. Myoungji University, Voice performance
B.M. Myoungji University, Voice performance
I have four degrees for voice performance in Korea and America. To get those degrees, I spent 15 years for studying. Even though it took long time I was able to know how to sing well.
