Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
I teach the basics first. I show my student how to hold the bow and the violin in detail. I explain that it will be awkward to hold the bow in correct position because it is unusual for person to hold the right hand that way. After several days of practice, this bow hold will become more natural to the student. Holding the violin in the proper position is also important in order to be able to play music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Clarinet Recorder
Whether my students are learning for fun, dedicated musicians honing their craft, or adults returning to the keyboard or starting out for the first time, we can work together to give you the musical training you desire. The best part about private lessons is making it all about you! I teach from a variety of piano methods, and I'm familiar with most of the common series out there. During our first few meetings, we can find a piano method that works for you. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Fiddle Music Keyboard
For beginning students who are children, I typically start with the Suzuki Method and playing by ear. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire on sheet music appropriate for their level of performance. It is important to stress the fundamentals of technique for my beginner students before just playing music. I like to incorporate music theory within their lessons, so not only are they able to hear a piece of music and can start playing but can also read sheet music that is put in front of them. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Flute Piccolo
Knowing that people learn through a variety of methods, Blanche Marie draws from several well known method books to personalize the instruction to the pupil's needs and strengths. She believes that choosing one method book for every student doesn't make sense because each student's needs are different. The method books used depend on the needs of the students and the instruments they are learning. Blanche Marie tries to incorporate duets within the lesson whenever possible to assist the student in growing from playing notes to making music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele Keyboard
For beginning voice students, I'll introduce them to the basics of singing, such as breath support, tone, etc. We'll start with some classical songs in order to cement good technique, and then branch out into the different types of music that the student would like to explore. For beginning piano/keyboard students, we'll begin with Piano Adventures Book 1 by Faber and progress through lesson books until the student is comfortable trying solo pieces. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Banjo Ukulele
Every student starts or resumes classes at different levels. My job is to recognize that level and proceed accordingly. I like my students to be able to learn and progress at the rate they can or want to. Letting students let you know what they want to learn and at what pace, helps the student as well as the teacher in that progress. I like to tell my students that they will not only be a good player, but know exactly what they are doing. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I always tell my students that at the beginning they should practice 15 minutes daily; if they are very young; and then start increasing when there is more homework. The older student should practice from 20 to 30 minutes daily and increase up to 1 hr. The adult because their time is committed to work I recommend to practice at least 3 days a week for half hour or whenever they have the time sit practice one song, or a warmup exercise.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Whenever a child can associate with word or whener they learn how to read, the child is ready.
When will I start to see results?
Immediately.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
All of my teachers inspired me to go into music. But in elementary school I heard the voice of my teacher Dalba Perez that was so beautiful, that I raised my hand to ask her if I could sing the song that she was singing, when I sang, she complimented me so much that made me the singer of the school.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
The sound of the piano was very similar to the chimes, and chimes were very comforting to me.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Teaching a child with autism.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
My students have something in common. They are honored students.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Discipline. To acquire discipline is hard work.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I choose the book according to the interests and personality of the student.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
First, eat something before you play. That way you are not hungry and you can stay longer practicing. If you are singing, eat an apple, if you are playing the piano or guitar, eat a snack.
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 degree in Music and Vocal Performance. I wanted to be able to teach different instruments besides my voice.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice by Camille Saint-Saëns. It is a challenge, beca cause I am a soprano and the piece was written for a messosoprano.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
A ballet dancer
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My own music. I can spend hours composing. It can be a different style, depends on the mood, it can be a Latin jazz song, waltz, ballad, a love song. Love play classical music.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Because I love the sound of harmonies. I can find all the harmonies on the piano, but I love the strong sounds and the rhythm that is portrayed on the guitar, also, is more maneagable.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes. On my father’s side, all of my grandfather’s brothers had an orchestra, they were musicians. On my mother’s side my cousin taught me the first songs on the piano and my godfather was a composer and he iniciated me with the guitar. I learned the first chords and then I sat hours teaching myself, learning songs by ear; then my mother sent me to take guitar and piano lessons
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I’ve been singing since I have recollection of my early childhood, maybe when I was 3 years old. I always knew that music was in my future; though, professionally, it was by chance. I was working at the Public Relations office at the University, when the son of the chancellor asked me if I could make him a favor to record his song, the song immediately became a hit on the radio.
