Alexis E

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin

For piano beginners I use the Faber book series. I prefer these books because it gives a mixture of theory and technique that I think is essential to learn at an early stage. For violin beginners I prefer to use the Suzuki Method books. These books are great because they get the student playing quickly, while still introducing the foundations of basic theory for reading music. Beginning guitar is a little more flexible depending on the students goals and the style they would like to learn. Read More

Instruments: Violin Music

During those years I taught Undergraduate Violin and also coached violin sectionals. Armed with my passion to help students achieve their dreams, my private students have consistently achieved a 100% entrance rate into youth orchestras and won 1st and 2nd prizes at the Reno Philharmonic Concerto Competition. I served on the Violin Faculty of the School of Young Talents at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, a school that has produced multiple International Prize Winners. Read More

Instruments: Piano Violin Viola

I love to teach students music and help them grow both as people and musicians. In 2009, I graduated from Fresno Pacific University with a Bachelor's degree in Music Education, and my primary instruments were violin, viola, and piano. After graduation, I continued to maintain my home studio where I taught individual lessons, and I also taught elementary orchestra for Chandler Unified. Since having my 2 kids, I teach from home exclusively, and I play in various chamber groups throughout the Valley. Read More

Orlando M

Instruments: Piano Violin

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time. I encourage the student to see it , believe it and achieve all goals that can be set out to be accomplished. Practice on a daily basis is very necessary when gaining the passion for the chosen instrument. My students are encouraged to enter competitions and recitals, as well as work on composing their own original material, so they can feel good about their accomplishments and stay motivated to learn.

Instruments: Violin Electric Violin

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
"The piano is easy to learn, but difficult to master; the violin is difficult to learn and difficult to master" -Unknown. I love to be challenged, because it helps me to become better at something and to push my limits and increase them. The violin is a very difficult instrument to learn. It is complex, and there are many things to do at once, but I love the challenge in it. It can be as challenging as you want it to be, and the learning never stops. I also chose the violin because there seems to be a certain stigma around it- you either play classical or you fiddle. I love to push those boundaries and see what other things I can do with my violin that other people wouldn't think you could do, and I even try to mix styles.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I play many instruments, and (after violin), the next instrument I decided to learn was the piano. I chose to learn this instrument because it is a very versatile instrument in learning, teaching, as well as composing music. I started composing music by the time I was 11 years old, and piano helped me to play more notes at a time than I could on the violin. I then chose to learn the cello at age 12, because I asked my teacher for an extra challenge in orchestra. The cello is my favorite sounding instrument, with it's warmth and richness, and it's harmony. Shortly after, I began singing on choirs, and then learning guitar and the ukulele, but I did not enjoy the guitar or ukulele as much as I found them to be less challenging. I picked up the clarinet by 10th grade, and during my freshman year of college (at the Horne School of Music) I learned percussion and dabbled with the alto saxophone. I have two reason why I try to learn so many instruments: the first being that I enjoy writing music, and it is easier to record tracks when I can just play them all myself. But mostly, I love the challenge of learning as many as I can, and I love to learn about the styles, sounds, and cultures of each instrument. I made it a personal goal when I was younger that I would learn all the instruments throughout my life (that's a lot! But I will try and learn as many as I can).

...curve will make the new fingering ultimately more efficient. You should also keep in mind that the information provided in this article is my opinion. From my experience, I also believe that it’s the most popular opinion on the subject, but it’s not the only one. Some saxophone players use the “1+1” fingering as their main Bb fingering. Most people I’ve talked to about it don’t. I also know that the “1+1” fingering sounds absolutely terrible on my particular horns. Maybe it sounds good on your horn. These are things that will develop over time. This saxophone fingering chart is simply a good resource to... Read More

Art music can usually be exclusively categorized by its structure, its style, and its place in history and society. Popular music, however, invents new genres as ways to sell the music to different demographics and that can make things ... Read More
