My teaching experience started when I was in high school. Being a son of two teachers I was compelled to become a tutor. I was my first student. Teaching myself how to play the piano and gutiar.

Matthew S

Instruments: Piano

Since beginning piano lessons myself when I was seven, I have been sharing my love of music with everyone all around me. I've been teaching lessons formally for the two years since I left college, and it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Working with new students is always such a humbling experience, because it challenges me as a teacher to approach old problems with a fresh perspective. Read More

Steve S

Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Acoustic Guitar

For beginning students I typically start with sound development and articulation for the brass instruments starting with armband studies and schlosburg studies. For the intermediate students I work on Clark studies and intersperse getchel etudes for artistic development. Advanced students work on major recital works for brass that help their development for performance. Guitar students learn chordal techniques with rythem patterns and a blend of classical playing finger picking for individual technique for fingers. Read More

Adella C

Instruments: Piano Clarinet Music

I believe my role as a teacher is to help students improve their musical abilities in a holistic manner. This means in addition to talking about technique, we will discuss theory and history related to the instrument and repertoire (depending on level of the student) as well as healthy and productive practice habits. I will help students to set realistic weekly goals so each student is improving consistently and feeling satisfied with his/her accomplishments each week. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Giovanni N

Instruments: Piano Drums Latin Percussion Music Keyboard

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I have multiple dream pieces to perform. I would like to perform a piano adaptation of the Toccata and Fugue in D minor from Bach because its level and independence requirements are fundamental for any professional. Furthermore, its complexity and passion is unique. In the drum I would like to play the iconoclast by Symphony X because its complexity.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I have a cousin with no proper musical formation that is a composer and keyboard player. Other than that, I am the only musician in my family.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was in a choir rehearsal when I was 12 years old. I saw the principal of my elementary school conducting with such passion that I felt Inspired. It was then when I decided to dedicate my life to music.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I play the keyboard because I needed to learn how to play in order to get graduated from collage. Eventually, I fell in love of the spiritual sound of this instrument and I keep playing by my own.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I think I would be a programmer, publicist or graphic designer. I am very creative but I really like technology, so I think It would be something related to art or computers.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I like to play baroque in the keyboard because its rhythm and composition are very logic and mathematically precise. In the drum I like to play rock and metal music because of its energy. I like the adrenaline I feel when I am playing but I like to play jazz too because I like to improvise.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Music, Mention: Musicology. I chose this subject because it mix human sciences with my passion: Music. In this career you can study society and human nature through the organization and conception of sounds.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
2 minutes of each scale and rudiments from quarter notes to Sixty-fourth notes just to warm up. Then, 30 minutes minimum of exercises to improve independence.After that, one hour to study the piece.

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Yes, the guide I use for the drum are "The modern guide for the modern drummer" by Riley and the "stick control for the snare" by Lawrence. For piano I use "El metodo Elemental y Progresivo" by Carpenter and for music language I use "The Pozzoli"

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Probably precision and technique. Even the most professionals instrumentalists have problems with the tempo and their techniques. Sometimes you get too excited playing the drum, It is when you lose on of both.

Jazz Scales: The Pentatonic Scale

...bad thing. You can use the same C major pentatonic over an Fmaj9 chord and the same scale ends up sounding very different. Then you can get into more colorful chords, like a Bbmaj9(#11) or a D9sus. If you play the C major pentatonic over an F#7 chord, you can get the altered sound. Very good for tension and release when resolving from dominant to tonic. As you can see, this one scale can be played convincingly over a bunch of different chords.   Look at the other pentatonic scales and try to figure out what chords they fit over. They usually have more... Read More

Guitar Exercises Every Guitarist Should Practice

...know. Here’s two simple chords to learn if you’re completely new to the guitar and looking for some simple chords to memorize.   The first chord is E minor, or Em. We refer to any minor chord in guitar with a simple “m” next to the note name as opposed to major chords which have no letter attached. With your left hand, place your index finger on the 2nd fret of the 5th string. Now, place your middle finger on 2nd fret of the 4th string. Strum all the strings and you’ll get an Em chord. Glue your middle finger to the guitar for ... Read More

...needs. You can ask your teacher to help you plan a warm up routine for you specifically.         Warming up with scales and arpeggios throughout the full range of the clarinet helps to warm-up your finger technique, but you should also keep in mind the same principles from your long tone exercises. You want a constant, consistent, and steady stream of air, and you want to pay attention to your air flow and speed, throat position, and intonation. You can do major scales and arpeggios. You can also do whatever scales and arpeggios that you’re working on ... Read More

There are excellent instruments that are available for under $1000 and that will last you a lifetime. Take the time to explore a little bit, talk to experienced musicians and don’t forget to look for used instruments.

This sometimes allows you to get a world-class instrument that you could never ... Read More

The Landfill Harmonic

...that lead to serious infection to regular exposure to hazardous chemicals found throughout the landfill. Even so, these and other daily risks have become a necessary component of survival for the people of the city, particularly for the recyclers who rely upon their scavenging skills for an unbelievably sparse income. From the seemingly bottomless mountains of trash come a variety of materials with unexpected potential for the citizens of Cateura. Defunct appliances, discarded home goods, old industrial equipment and more offer the impoverished community a unique opportunity: a small but growing group of children and teenagers are learning how to craft amazing orchestral instruments ...
