Alan S

Instruments: Voice

As with most of my own studies, I try to adhere to the classical style of training. I will also adjust as to the student's individual needs. Of course with everyone, we will increase vocal range and experiment with what areas of style need more work than others, for example some may need to work harder at belting than head voice, and so on. The most important things in my opinion are warmup techniques, breath support, examining correct space, finding the lift in the soft palate, and letting go of any tension, especially in the jaw area, as it is not a part of the process!

Instruments: Voice

I focus on the voice first - not just repertoire, not just impending auditions or competitions. Building the voice - not just the performance to come - is an approach I have found to yield strong technique that can carry students far past any immediate need. Building range, teaching the function and physiology of the vocal anatomy (moreso as students age), and bringing students to understand their voice as an extension of their heart, mind, and body are all simple goals I have for each student.

Instruments: Voice Synthesizer Music

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 5 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio and remotely for the last 5 years. I started to teach speech level voice production with a wide range of styles including pop, rnb, world music. While at Berklee, I worked as a lab monitor which included responsibilities such as helping students with their music production assignments. Read More

Haley S

Instruments: Voice

I would begin each lesson with a vocal warmup so that I can see where their tone is placed and if they are an alto/soprano/tenor/etc. I would ask what genres they are interested in or what types of music they like. If they have a song they'd want to learn, we would practice that song and work on technique so that they can perform it in a healthy and confident way. Read More

Brandon W

Instruments: Voice

I'm a passionate and driven Off-Broadway actor who loves working with new students and teaching them the foundation of music/theatre. I graduated early from The University of the Arts in Dember 2016 with a BFA in Musical Theatre. I've performed all over the U.S. and have worked with amazing individuals in the industry. I am mostly known for my classically rooted bari-tenor timbre and jazz stylization that influence my characters to seem vulnerable, yet grounded. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Luis D

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Recorder Piccolo Music

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Khachaturian Flute Concerto. Beautiful phrases, virtuosic sections, and DRAMA. What else could you ask for?

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be a chef! In both instances we are serving others, and working as a unit to produce a greta product for others to enjoy!

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
This was a gradual decision which for me started in High School and I made the decision to dedicate myself to the craft, sacrifice a lot of my time, and be open to learning and being humbled by those around me- by pedagogues and performers alike.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My Elementary School PS165 took trips to Avery Fisher Hall and listen to the New York Philharmonic rehearse Peter & The Wolf. I was in the 3rd grade at the time so the only reason I liked the flute was because it was shiny, loud, and got all of the attention playing melody and in the center of the orchestra. I could hear the beautiful ringing melodies, the conversations had in between sections through the music, and how musicians/ conductors tackled difference of opinions in artistic approach, standard performance practice, what is historically accurate in terms of style, intonation, phrasing etcetc. There was so much to be said about something that requires no talking to make happen.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Numerous students within my studio have won concerto competitions, orchestra seats, and chosen for masterclasses with known flutists from the New York Pops.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Going on tour with Nyack College to Asia in order to perform chamber music and going again a few years later as an Artistic Director where I would then oversee rehearsals, deal with logistics, and perform as a soloist internationally and get to give a Masterclass in Hong Kong!

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing is just as much of an art-form as getting on stage with bright lights and playing your heart out! Go out and purchase a metronome! THAT is your best friend, and it never fails. Set a "Number Goal" for yourself and turn it into a game! Play something slowly 5 or 10 times, if you are able to play it correctly crank up the metronome 1-2 clicks. Set that same number again, if you mess up before getting to that number then go back to the previous tempo. Challenge yourself to memorize tricky passages as well. Take a tricky 8 or 12 measure section and memorize the first 2 measures to start off. Play it 10 times, then turn the stand and play it 5 times by memory- keep doing this and you will see how easily you can execute those tricky measures. Why? Well memorizing music is a greater challenge then reading that same passage which is now in front of you! So when its time to play it you can focus less on notes and nerves, and more on musical phrasing and air support!

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
They should demonstrate a natural curiosity for music. Do they ask questions when they hear classical music? Do they react when they hear someone sing? Will they clap or dance on beat to music on the radio? Have they expressed an interest for a specific instrument? Another key factor is age/instrument. A child who is very active might find something like the drums or percussive instruments more appealing then say the piano or violin which requires less movement to execute sound.

How To Tune A Guitar

...done. Tuning pegs are adjustable devices that can tighten or loosen each string. How loose or tight each string is will determine the pitch of your string. Typically, twisting the tuning peg in a counterclockwise fashion will tighten or sharpen the pitch, while moving it clockwise will have the opposite effect. It’s extremely important to note here that tuning pegs are sensitive, and that cranking the pegs too quickly will result in broken strings. It’s a good idea to tune slowly by moving the tuning pegs just a bit at a time.   For tuning by ear, first get your... Read More

5 Benefits of Piano Lessons for Your Kids

...elements into piano lessons. Some students may be too young to pursue rigorous vocal training. Others prefer to pursue piano over vocal training. Many musicians vocalize as they play which can offer further opportunities for musical expression and understanding with their whole selves. Singing, tapping, humming, and stomping are all part of the variety of ways one can explore further expression while playing the piano.   3. Pianists explore melody, harmony, and accompaniment. By reading two lines of music simultaneously, students gain an appreciation for the way that musical elements fit together cooperatively. This diversity allows students to explore music theory and experience the variety of ways an instrument can traverse a composition and interact with additional instrumentation.   4. Students develop focus, dexterity, and emotional understanding. Expressive outlets, ... Read More
