Voice Lessons in Organ, NM

Instruments: Guitar Voice Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My Experience goes back to my early and young age. I started to take lessons with a private instructor called Manolo Parra, a wonderful flamenco and classical guitarist. After 3 years of taking classes with him I started to teach guitar and work as his teaching aid. At the same time I participated and helped in church choirs as member and choir director making arrangements for original compositions and others. Today I'm still composing, arranging and directing a musical group. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

My lessons include a number of activities including piano instruction, ear training, theory, technique, and flash cards.  They are all great learning tools for a well-rounded music education. I begin teaching sight reading almost from the first lesson. It is important for me as a teacher to see students make correlations between what they hear and see. Note memorization is also essential, but rather than simply using the standard acronyms for staff reading or focus on naming notes individually, I teach students early on to recognize the overall shape of the music they read Read More

Instruments: Voice

During the initial lesson I sit down with my students and discuss exactly what they are looking to glean from private instruction.  Then we develop a game plan.  Some students achieve at a faster pace than others because talent develops differently from everyone.  I also ensure that every student has strong music theory foundation so that they understand singing isn't just what you hear but what you know in your mind.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing a student develop the same passion for music that I have. It is very important to me that each student progresses at his or her own pace.

Finding what inspires the student is the best possible way to tailor each lesson to their wants and needs. Read More
