Mark M

Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard

I customize the curriculum and repertory for each of my students based on their personal goals, which we will discuss in the first lessons. Do you want to play for yourself or to perform publicly? What kinds of repertory appeal to you and how much time do you have to practice? From there we will create a plan that best meets these goals. For beginners, this will include a method book (I often use Faber Piano Adventures for young beginners and Alfred Adult-In-One methods) to get you started. Read More

I am a classically-trained pianist who loves sharing the joy of music with others. I graduated from Coastal Carolina University in 2017 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music, with a concentration on music education. During my studies, I developed a love of folk music from around the world, and have found that it is a great teaching tool.

As a performing singer I have been very fortunate to have performed in many of the great concert halls of the world, including Carnegie Hall, Avery Fischer Hall, Lincoln Centre, The Barbican and the Royal Albert Hall in London. I have also sung Countertenor roles with many opera companies in the USA and the UK.

Donovan D

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Accordion Harmonica Lap Steel Guitar Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion

Originally being a self-taught musician, I began with piano and harmonica, then eventually branched out to guitar, bass, banjo, among several others. I have ran sound equipment from an early age as well, learning how to set rigs for full bands and how to mix and master tracks for recording purposes. I have met and played with many famous and unfamous musicians, and find that the highest amount of talent is undiscovered and uncultivated. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Cailin S

Instruments: Voice

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Hold yourself to practicing regularly, even if you have to schedule it like you schedule class or work. Putting yourself in the mindset at an expected time each day to practice can go a long way in developing focus. When in the practice room, keep realistic goals for yourself, even if they seem small, and practice intentionally. Going to practice with the intent of getting better at a technique or a part of a piece helps students measure their progress more effectively and feel more proud of the work they put in!

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My elementary school music teacher and high school voice teacher helped foster my love of music, but the professional encouragement came from a college voice teacher and now dear friend and mentor. I was singing for the joy of taking lessons and being in choir, but this teacher believed in me on a deeper level and encouraged me to a declare a major. It turned out to be the best decision I've ever made! I believe encouraging students is more important than some think, and taking every chance available to inspire a student through encouragement and positive reinforcement is very important to me.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My most recent vocal coach told me after a setback, "Keep trying, and soon you will strike gold." Soon after that, I was cast in Dickinson College's production of Next to Normal as Natalie, and it was the most profound performing experience I've ever had! Putting such an intense and important story on stage was incredibly challenging, both from a performance and personal standpoint, but it was incredibly rewarding. In addition, I made my opera debut in Florence, Italy, where opera was born! Finally, my most recent recital was a program of all women composers, which I was proud to choose and highlight stories that are not always often told.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would probably be an elementary school teacher! I love working with kids, which intensified in my four years as a camp counselor through high school and college. I love kids' imaginations and helping them to bring out their creativity, especially in subjects they otherwise find boring or difficult. Seeing the light bulb go off is a great feeling! If I wasn't teaching music, I think I would be finding teaching positions in elementary schools in the US, or potentially serving in the Peace Corps overseas.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love singing classical music of any kind, but especially contemporary classical pieces. Sometimes they are a little jarring to listen to, or even confusing, but that's what I love about it! Bringing out a new interpretation can be so rewarding, and I think it's fun to work on learning seemingly hard melodies and mastering the difficult harmonies against them. I think there's a beauty in some of the more dissonant contemporary pieces that are so unfamiliar compared to the great works of composers like Mozart, and exploring them is a wonderful challenge!

Jazz Scales: The Pentatonic Scale

...something along the lines of, “Man, I don’t have any bebop language anymore. All I can play are pentatonic scales.” What he was getting at was that, playing professionally, he got much better at pentatonic scales at the expense of his jazz language.   The moral of the story is: the pentatonic is a great, useful, versatile scale. It’s easy to learn and pretty easy to make sound great. It can be easily applied to a variety of musical genres. It’s a scale you’ll use very often if you play music outside of the jazz idiom. But, if you wanna keep your jazz chops... Read More

How To Find The Motivation To Practice

Yes, dedicated practice is vital if you want to enhance your skills, learn to read music, or prepare for a performance, but playing without any plan or intention makes room for creativity and musical growth at the same time. Something I always do with my piano students is to dedicate the first 10 minutes of a lesson to improvisation, no matter what the student’s age or background is. Music is amazing because of its ability empower ... Read More

Betty Modlow, an elderly woman from Morningside Heights, who marched with both a mini-xylophone and a tambourine, drew parallels to the West Village’s annual Halloween parade, which she participates in annually. “It was started by one person as a small community event,” she said “and now it’s huge.” Consequently, the Halloween parade also features illuminated puppets made with the help of Processional Arts Workshop. The giant lanterns this evening, which ranged from Trojan horses to Gothic churches, were created by parents and children during a week of well-attended drop-in lantern making sessions at Miller Theater.
