Kate P

Instruments: Piano Voice

For young and beginning vocalists, I will typically start with assigning and working on American Art song, spirituals, folk music, songs from 24 Italian Songs, and musical theatre repertoire. I tailor my choices to each student, as each student has a different voice and way of learning. For the more advanced or experienced vocalists, I will assign classical and romantic art song of different languages and operatic arias. Once again, my choices will be tailored to each individual student. Read More

Desiree J

Instruments: Piano Voice

I love to see my students enjoy learning music and gain confidence as they realize their musical potential. This can only be accomplished in a safe and healthy environment where my students are able to express themselves without fear of rejection or judgement. At the first voice lesson, I have my students list their musical goals and what they hope to achieve. Through positive affirmation, I am able to help them reach their goals and develop a passion for music. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Banjo Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I am a passionate and motivated musician and teacher. I started playing guitar back in 1996. Over the years, my passion for music and love for guitar allowed me to play in numerous bands, covering all forms of music. I later decided to study music under the finest musicians this region has to offer. This is where I honed my skills in Jazz Guitar, Classical Guitar, Jazz Bass, Jazz Piano, Jazz and Classical Composition, Jazz Arranging, Jazz and Classical Pedagogy, Jazz and Classical Conducting, Latin Jazz, Gypsy Jazz, Modern Jazz, Large Jazz Ensemble, Guitar Ensemble, Live Sound and Audio Recording.

Andrew S

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Bass Guitar Synthesizer Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Lute Electric Violin Fiddle Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I create play-along videos, so that kids have something specific to practice at home. I use "Read this First" as a note reading book. Students play along with me and also by themselves at lessons. Eventually kids can gather together and play as a group if they wish to do so. I start with memorization, and easy ways of writing down the songs... and eventually kids will learn to read music, after they've secured a basic technique. Read More

Morris B

Instruments: Piano Guitar

I like to teach at your pace. If you want me to teach you songs, we can learn tabs and chords. Also, I can teach fundamental music theory which includes things like scales so you can solo on your guitar in certain keys of the song. The theory will also tell you which chords you can play, so if someone says play in G minor, you know what notes are the right ones to play. Read More

Scott B

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Every stage is different. With beginners, you want them to learn the notes first, then the chords, the harder chords..etc. With intermediate players, you can begin teaching them songs and giving them songs to work on. Advanced players is all about finding the right tone and the right sounds, most likely helping by providing guitar work with them. It all depends on the student! But I know that for children, you start with the basics and work your way up! Read More

Chelsey P

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet Music

My teaching style is whatever fits best with the student. I am a high energy, silly, out of the box kind of teacher. I have no shame doing a silly dance to get my students engaged and moving! My main goal is for students to have fun and enjoy making music. My students will quickly learn to love every sound that they make because every note they produce is unique to them. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Reuven A

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba Music

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 Bachelor's Degree in French Horn Performance, and a Master's Degree in Orchestral conducting. I also have Teacher Certification in Math and Music k-12. I knew that I would be studying Music from about the time I was in 11th Grade in High School. I started with a double major in Music and Math, but was not able to commit enough time for both, and--as I knew I would in the case--I dropped the Math major, but never lost interest in math.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream piece would be to perform the Konsertstük for 4 horns and Orchestra by Robert Schumann. This is a great piece. Schumann was intrigued by the newly invented valves, and wrote this piece, among others, which is written for two valved horns and two natural horns (no valves).

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be teaching Math and Dance--both of which I do currently. I have been dancing since I was 12 years old, and continue to dance and teach dance today!

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
i am a classical musician, and most enjoy playing chamber music. I do however do a lot of improvising on the piano in a variety of styles.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I stated with the Piano, and then I learned the guitar--mostly playing chords and singing with family and friends. I stared French Horn in 5th grade, by for the next 4 years, I was in a small school which did not have a Middle School Band program. I took Guitar Class and learned to play the Flute. When I returned to a big Public School in 10th grade, I decided to go back to the French Horn instead of continuing with the Flute.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Of the six siblings in my family 3 (including myself) studied music in college and continued in musical professions. My sister who is know a well known Mosaic Artest, though with no formal training in music, sings and plays the Ukulele with friend and family and in some community groups. My mother did not have much of a music background, but she encouraged all of us children to pursue whatever interest we had.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I knew from the time I was in 10th grade that I would be going into music. I was a natural teacher long befog that, and in my youth group from the age of 14 was teaching and leading folk dancing and choreographing performances. Later I led singing performances for the youth group choir.

Beginner Guitar Solos: Getting Started with Improvisation

...once said, “Music is the space between notes.” Good guitar soloists don’t just barrage listeners with a constant stream of notes. They learn to give passages of music plenty of time to breathe and sink in. They realize that the notes they’re playing will have far more potency if they’re played at just the right time. You can liken this to other artistic mediums like painting or photography where too much of something often begins to take away from the original idea.   Now that you know a little bit more about guitar solos, we’re going to show you how to get started with improvising and writing...

2 Chord Songs: Easy Songs for Guitar

...As you first start out playing guitar, one of the greatest difficulties that new players have is changing between many different chords. It takes a long time and a great deal of practice to get your fingers to the point where they can move quickly and smoothly between any variety of guitar chords. As you develop the required muscle memory, a great source of frustration is not knowing how to play a song all the way through, from start to finish. Most songs have multiple sections with many different chord changes that can make it difficult for new players to get beyond the introduction. Fortunately, ... Read More

Opera Voice Types

...Fricka from Wagner’s Die Walküre.   The Contralto Voice   First off, listen to “Erda’s Warning” from Das Rheingold by Wagner. Enough said. Contralto opera voice parts come as more of a commodity, and you won’t hear them every day. In fact, it’s so rare to find a legitimate operatic contralto that dramatic mezzo sopranos often have to sing contralto roles (much to their chagrin, we can imagine). Contralto voices are characterized by an exceptionally deep, rich, and powerful timbre–Marian Anderson is arguably the best example. Contralto is the lowest of the female opera voice types.   Male Opera Voice Types   ... Read More

Types of Clarinets

...You can hear the clarinet in many different types of clarinets in all sorts of music, from classical to jazz, marching band to rock, Broadway to klezmer. The first iteration of the modern day clarinet was invented around the year 1700. Its predecessor was the chalumeau.   When people talk about the clarinet, the word “clarinet” by itself always refers to the Bb clarinet. However, there are several different types of clarinets. The number and types of clarinets a typical clarinet player owns depends on the types of music he or she plays. A jazz player may own a Bb clarinet and a ... Read More

How To Write a Pop Song

...song as a whole.   Other Sections   Verses and choruses are a Pop song’s staple sections, but they’re by no means the only sections. When learning how to write a pop song, intros, endings, bridges, and instrumental sections should be studied as well. They are powerful songwriting tools that can add valuable character, momentum, and direction to the music you’re writing. A thoughtfully-constructed intro is your way to set the tone of your song by introducing instruments, suggesting a tonality, and constructing a mood. The intro is your chance to define a mood that will carry through your song or hint at ... Read More

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
