Instruments: Voice Violin Viola Fiddle

I'm a Suzuki-trained violinist and singer, a graduate of the University of Houston, and have studied music for the majority of my life! I'm based in Houston and have performed in opera and with various musical theater companies in the Houston area. Even though I've focused on classical music for most of my career, I love branching out into different styles, particularly Celtic, Texan, Jewish, Romani, and even a bit of Zydeco. Read More

Rachel B

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola Electric Violin Double Bass Music

I began teaching during high school. My Conductor asked me to teach some beginning students in order to help them out with their playing, and my teaching has evolved from there. I have taught orchestral strings for over 20 years now, and still continue to play professionally myself. Each student has their own personality and way of learning, so I try to make sure from the very beginning that I get to know my students. Read More

Alejandro S

Instruments: Violin Viola

I has been immersed in the wonderful world of music since 2009. I started my studies at the Conservatorium of Music of Carabobo, where I learned about music theory, harmony and history of music. There I began to fall in love with sounds, especially the sounds of bowed string instruments and started to learn Viola and Violin. Thus developing different kind of musical works, both classical and cultural, I had the opportunity to perform and be part of several Symphonic Orchestras and groups to play different types of repertoire and musical genre.

Teacher In Spotlight

Walt W

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Well, the ability to be a musician as a profession is even harder now than when I was a kid. I become a teaching assistant dealing with special education students. Through this, I have actually taught a child with autism to play the guitar. However, I play in historic homes during the holiday times. These tours have people guided through older homes and I accompany their visits with music. Our joys and goals change with age and maturity. However ,music and guitar will always be a part of life and I will never forget the dreams I had when I was young.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style of music today would have to be blues slide. This style of guitar and music traces itself back to the early early roots of America. If you look closely on You Tube, you may be able to find performances of the blues greats. These men and women could feel the music and it came out through their instruments and voices. Also, at this point in my musical life, I write and play my own music as well. Through this all of the different styles of music I have learned seem to come out in one way or another. I am proud when other musicians like my music enough to play it themselves..

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Well, because of needs when being in a band, you learn to play what you do not have. Because of this fact, I have played drums and base occasionally as well as guitar. I cannot say that I am a drummer. I have never owned a drum set, but I have filled in many times. However, I started playing base because of the previous reason and became quite proficient. I found that I could improvise and really enjoy playing this instrument. I also found that it was a great deal easier to sing as the lead singer in a band while playing.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
My decision to become a professional musician was there right from the start. I listened and watched my favorite bands. What I wanted most in life was to be like them. However, air guitar was never enough for me and I am not someone who does not quit trying. So, after my first lessons, I made the decision that I was going to have a band and be a performer. This is not for everyone. Playing in front of people is vert difficult for some, but I am not shy and at the age of 15, I had formed my first band. We did not become huge rock stars, but I still love to play in front of people and it does not take much to get me out in front and do it.

How To Start a Band

...Here’s some good questions to think about when it comes to finding out who’ll make a good fit for your project:   How experienced are they?   The amount of experience you should look for in a musician completely depends on the style and character of the band you’re trying to form. If you’re fresh out of high school and looking to start an indie pop band, then choosing an older person with a lot of experience with their instrument might not be the best fit stylistically for you. Other types of projects like professional cover bands or jazz ensembles will ... Read More

...process of pruning. However, the brain has great plasticity, and we can certainly continue to learn new skills at various stages of life. But just as it is said that learning a foreign language is easier as a child, the same is true of the musical language.   Think of the ways a child learns to speak. She listens, she explores, she babbles, she imitates, she observes to make connections between sounds and symbols. This goes on and on until she finally connects the word “ball” to the round rubber thing the dog catches and eventually forms her mouth correctly to make ... Read More
