All of my singers work through the exercises by Mathilde Marchesi as they are the backbone of bel canto and good healthy singing. I encourage my vocalists to explore different styles and techniques to find the best fit for their instruments. I also teach theory and sight singing using various different methods and tools. I am a big believer in encouraging my singers to do research on the pieces they are performing. Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Music

These degrees may not seem to add much to my musical background, but their very training solidifies my persistence in logical training, something much required in the study of music. In my spare time, a good friend and I have prepared podcasts on guiding classical music appreciation to a deeper level than simple song recognition. I used to arrange for and coach an acapella group based in New York. I also compose recreationally and transcribe piano music into symphonic expansions. Read More

Instruments: Piano Violin Viola

For my string students I teach music theory only if requested, as many don't have access to pianos/keyboards at home so they can understand harmony, chord progressions etc. Without a keyboard understanding harmonic progressions can be very challenging. Experience has taught me that the joy of music comes only to those who get a solid foundation and knowledge. Many students begin with great enthusiasm, only to get frustrated after a while when they find themselves stuck year after year with beginner level music. Read More
