Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Music Keyboard
A few years down the road I started playing trumpet in the beginning band at my school under the tutelage of who, to this very day, I believe was the best youth band director to ever hold a baton. Since then I have had many teachers who have shaped my life many different ways. They spent the time to grow and cultivate my skills and talent, teach me musician's etiquette, and give me “the tools of the trade”. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My name is David Herscowitz, and I've been playing the piano since 1985 and teaching since 2005. I grew up in Los Angeles and moved to Oakland in 2012. I attended the Alexander Hamilton High School Academy of Music in Los Angeles and received my BA in Music from U.C. Santa Barbara. Making music (especially with other musicians) is my favorite thing to do, and teaching others the gift of music comes in a close second! Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Clarinet
When I was ten, I made the decision that whatever career I chose, I needed it to allow me to help people. As I got older and discovered that music was the thing I most wanted to do in this life, teaching voice and piano became the vehicle I needed to keep doing music as well as help people, like I wanted. In training my voice classically, I had the very best instructor who taught me how to sing the healthy way. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
My teaching style is very adaptive to the abilities and interest of each student. I always try to keep my students motivated and positive because it is very important to be upbeat to learn music. From beginners to professional players, every musician needs passion to excel in the field and I encourage that by keeping my lessons very interactive and interesting. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Organ Synthesizer
I have no hard strict rules when it comes to teaching, because every student is different and they all learn at different speeds in different ways. I've taught out of the following books: Bastien Piano Basics Alfred Piano Method Faber Method John Thompson's Teaching Little Fingers to Play For more advanced students, I'm open to spending on time on whatever concepts they most want to cover. I also have a broad repetoire of jazz and classical as well as modern pop, rock, and even country and TV Themes to select from if the student has a specific style or song in mind. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone Flute Piccolo Music
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
All of the teachers I have worked with from middle school all the way through college have inspired me in many different ways. However, the teachers that inspired me the most were my private lesson instructors in high school and college. I feel like one on one work with talented professionals throughout the past 8 years really jumpstarted my passion for music because of how personalized their teaching was to my specific way of learning.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I find that effectively practicing different concepts and fundamentals is directly linked to how easily we can relate the practice to our own aspirations on the instrument. For this reason I always make sure to show students exactly what the practice of certain concepts will lead to in their own playing down the road and how it correlates to their personal goals. This way, students will be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel while staying inspired. Segmenting practicing is very important as well so there is always a clear idea of what you are trying to improve at in the time you have.
When will I start to see results?
The rate at which you see noticable results in playing and understanding concepts depends on many factors including, but not limited to: experience playing your instrument, early exposure to different genres of music, average amount of time consuming music per day, the difficulty of the concepts being worked on, age, stamina, amount of practice time, etc. When it comes to progressing on an instrument, everyone is different. Mastering a certain scale could take one person a few weeks and another person a full year. Every student has their strengths and weaknesses. As long as a beginner student does focused daily practice for just 30 minutes a day, it's possible for them to sound like a completely different player in as soon as a week.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Knowing if your child is ready to start taking lessons has nothing to do with their experience or abilities on their instrument and everything to do with their willingness to start learning about music. If they don't have an interest in learning music, putting them on a practice schedule could deter them from ever gaining an interest. On the other hand, putting a child that's already interested in music through lessons can skyrocket their passion and abilities.
