Instruments: Piano Voice
Music has been the most important part of my life since day one. I am enthusiastic about sharing and instilling this same love of music in the next generation of musicians. As a performer with over 10 years of experience in a variety of genres, the most important thing Ive learned is there is no one path or right way to be a musician. My studies and performances have led me all over the world; from India to china, Spain, and all across the United States. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
From my private lessons with Jamie Valentino, who teaches at the University of Redlands and holds a Doctrine in Classical and Jazz guitar, I've learned a number of techniques for every style. We will go over timing, and strumming patterns, as well as knowing the circle of fifths, harmony, scales, finger technique warm ups for both hands, and pick control using a number of exciting songs as a supplement so we can play and practice at the same time.

I am a guitar instructor based in Los Angeles. I have more musical instruments than furniture in my house. I regularly perform in a number of ensembles in the area. I'm involved with a local gamelan ensemble (Indonesian percussion music), the Elizabeth Waldo Orchestra, and the Music Center of Los Angeles as an artist educator. Read More

I developed a system of designing courses based on the individual music profile of the student. I assess the students capacities in different areas, I design the course based on this assessment and the goals the student wants to reach. Typically each student receives training on three main areas: Technique, Ear Training and Music Theory. In each area I use ton of resources to have students learn ,absorb and apply key concepts about rhythm, melody, harmony, tone color and form. Read More

For students earlier in their journeys, I do believe a practical understanding of music and basic theory is fundamental to unlock both the art and the science of performing. After warm up exercises that help acquire the vocabulary and sonic principles of agile musicianship, I would immediately dive into material that the student finds engaging and personal! I am an advocate for storytelling in the arts first, with mechanical technique and instruction used as vehicles to empower the pure love of expression! Read More

I, Michael G. Turner, breathe through music. My love for music began at a very early age and I was blessed to realize, very soon, that it was my passion.I began performing at the age of 13 on clarinet, in voice, and on drums and percussion. Most of my early performance experience was obtained in church, school, and in my older brothers' Top 40 band. I hold an Associates in Music degree from Los Angeles City College, a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Education from California State University Northridge, a California State Teaching Credential, and I am currently the music teacher and director of bands at Chatsworth High School in Chatsworth California.

Instruments: Voice
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Probably the 1st song on my website "Sophisticated Lady" by Duke Ellington, sung at the large theatre of Berklee would be one.
Having written 3 books on singing and having them published by Mel Bay, Inc. would be another.
Doing solos with the Boston Symphony and recording with them as well as singing solos at Carnegie Hall and Columbia University in New York City would be others.
Probably my biggest accomplishment would be teaching Voice at Berklee College of Music, where I learned more than at any previous school!
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Yup, several of my students have gone on to become Voice Professors themselves. (I believe they are listed on my website)
Charlie Sorrento became a full Professor at Berklee College
Marlon Saunders has recorded several albums and appeared as well as sang on a Disney film.
One student whom I taught had a huge rock hit with the band Till Tuesday: "Voices Carry."
Others have gone on to successful careers in Christian music, both performance, song writing and arranging.
Hopefully there are others about whom I don't even know!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I'd say the most difficult thing to master would be allotting time to vocalize daily, yet do the reading, physical training and other disciplines that contribute to the totality of an excellent singer.
It's the reading and thinking that are the real crux here.
Once your thinking is right, the rest just seems to fall in place. So I guess I'd say that maintaining a life balance that is healthy, positive and forward thinking are the answer to the "hardest thing" question.
Joyce Lucia, Professor of Voice
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I begin by some physical activity; perhaps a few abdominal crunches on a Stability Ball and/or cardio.
Next, I hum, then sing on a single vowel to attain the focus and range I want.
Singing songs on a vowel comes next.
I consider all the aforementioned things as warmup (maybe 10 minutes.)
I spend the rest of the lesson working on my solos for that week, preparing sheet music; listening to versions of the song I like best, then lastly singing with a background track. Much of the final singing is done through a microphone on the P.A. I keep in my music room. Some times I actually record the singing so I may send copies of songs to various folks.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Yes, I use the ones I wrote while teaching at Berklee. Basically, the books follow the beliefs I have about learning to sing. There are sections on range, vowels and consonants, what to practice, how to document it. There's even a section on diaphragmatic breathing, which, although needn't be known, being able to do it will differentiate your singing from that of someone who DOESN'T know how to do it.
I try to use contemporary comparisons, rather than look back to the way folks sang in the 1600's. Makes sense, no?
