My early forays into education began during my undergraduate work at The Evergreen State College. I quickly learned how fulfilling the process was, and was routinely complimented on the patience I exhibited with my beginner students. After taking time off to work on my graduate degree and launch my freelance career, I resumed teaching again after graduation, volunteering as a faculty assistant with a music theory course at a local community college.

Alexander W

Instruments: Piano Violin Trombone Saxophone Clarinet

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music. Therefore, it is important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a student's desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what truly inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and the needs. Read More

Taylor Z

Instruments: Violin Viola

My method varies from student to student - It really depends on the students level. For a beginner student, I would focus giving the basic music foundation for violin: posture and bow hold, solid intonation and tone, and good sense of rhythm. More importantly, I teach the student to be aware of how to create a beautiful sound versus a bad sound. Furthermore, I use Hirmaly Violin Scale book for technique and Suzuki Book for the music pieces for beginner students. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

James S

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Viola Mandolin Keyboard

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had the pleasure of studying with the best teachers in the world including: Piano: Dr. Robert Watson (CSUF), Dr. Lucinda Carver (USC), Dr. Burton Karson (CSUF), Dr. Rita Fussek (CSUF), Adrienne Iagjian (Student of composer Aram Khatchaturian), Oscar Peterson (Jazz workshop) Andreij Dutkeiwitcz (Warsaw Conservatory), Joanna Hodges (LB, CA) Voice: Dr. Jane Paul, (CSUF), Dr. Dennis Parnell (CSUF), Su Harmon (CSUF), Dolores Spencer Harpsichord: Malcolm Hamilton (USC), Dr. Burton Karson (CSUF) Violin: Vera Maureus, Dr. Peter Marsh (CSUF), Meredith Ashby Music Composition: Dr. Lloyd Rodgers (CSUF), Dr Edward Vaughn (Royal Academy of Music) High school: Richard Otey and Linda Carpenter (Edison High, Huntington Beach, CA) Parents; Dolores and Charles Spencer Disneyland: Rod Miller (Ragtime Piano)

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I always loved piano and my mother was classically trained. I was inspired by classical and jazz pianists and had the best education possible. I studied voice as my mother was Met opera star and my dad was a noted country western performer. I have studied my whole life and I'm passionate about piano and voice. I come from a long line of musicians similar to the Bach or Von Trapp family. My great great grandfather Canuto Berea is noted Spanish composer, and I have several siblings that are also in the arts.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm most proud of being a noted jazz pianist/recording artists played all over the world on cocktail lounge stations and all my honors for my albums, and books. I'm proud of my degrees which include Fellowship and double MM and BM degrees in piano and voice. I have a heck of a lot of professional schooling to back up my credentials. I have worked with leaders in the arts including for Broadway Theatre: Stephen Sondheim, Carol Burnett, Nel Carter, Patrick Cassidy, Ann Miller, and Carol Channing. I have performed with symphonies all over the world. I feel blessed to get to do what I love every day of my life.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Most of my high school students are professional musical theatre actors/actresses, on television and in movies. My pianists are all professional, and I also have several students who are noted composers/songwriters. Those who chose to study with me tend to be intermediate-advanced level students preparing for careers in the arts or retired seniors. My students compete in competitions, give recitals or perform at Disneyland and local musical theatre productions. I also have 3 students working on their degrees from LCM with me.

How To Sing And Play Piano At the Same Time

...play C and F major chords in one hand with half notes while singing the chord names in quarter notes. Feel free to experiment with different combinations of rhythms to sing and play with when you feel ready.       Now that you’ve worked on creating independence between your voice and hands we can add an actual vocal melody into the exercise. Singing over the same C and F major chords, you’ll now sing a simple 4-note melody. For these notes you can sing “Do-Re-Mi-Re” or any other syllables you prefer. Feel free to experiment as you gain confidence.   Vocal Melody (played over... Read More

Guitar Lessons For Adults: Taking Guitar Lessons as an Adult

...their kids is a great idea. This way the parent and kids spend time together in lessons, and both parties learn a new skill while keeping each other accountable during the week for practicing. A parent can’t say, “Hey Jimmy, you need to practice the guitar,” if they haven’t practiced the guitar themselves. If you’re serious about learning music over the next few years, what an incredible gift it could be for your family to make learning how to play the guitar a part of your household routine. Guitar lessons for adults are also great when a friend or two is involved. Maybe ... Read More

Suzuki Practice: A Daily Event

Your job is to gently, yet firmly, guide the child into the practice session and get it done. Chances are, once your child is in the middle of the practicing, he’ll forget his frump about practicing and will be just as excited as ever to finally play “Lightly Row” without dropping the toy car off the violin. But if there is sickness or injury, or just a hard day, cut back. Many years ago, the ... Read More

Roll in My Sweet Baby’s Arms, Guitar Lesson 2/3

...Intermediate Rhythm This is an intermediate rhythm guitar lesson for the song “Roll in my Sweet Baby’s Arms.” This will involve bass runs to each chord, hammer-ons and pull-offs, and a more in-depth look at the G-run.

Here are a few things to focus on during this lesson. 1. Make sure you master the first two measures. It can easily be over looked but it will set the tone for the rest of the piece.
