Instruments: Piano

-Practicing is important, but the most essential way to improve is to USING THE CORRECT METHOD TO PRACTICE. -A wrong way to practice the piano might lead a dead end no matter how long you spend on the piano, but a good method will cost you less than half the energy to yield the best result in piano playing. -I use the simplest and correct methods to help you play the piano, which was discovered and summarized by my piano knowledge and experience combined with my professors' guideline which was from the Juilliard School, New England Conservatory and the Jacobs School of Music.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar

My teaching experience with guitar goes back to about age 14, when I was understanding and advancing faster than others around me or someone would ask me for advice or help. I never had the chance nor opportunity to advance my studies to get a degree. Thoughout all these years it has been shown that some gifts are certainly not to be taken advantage of. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I love music and have been playing for over 20 years now as well as teaching for the past 10. I have played in almost any kind of musical situation and style over the years from orchestras to jazz bands to solo guitar, etc. Many of my students have gone on to get accepted into universities and get scholarships. I've been very lucky to have so much support and help over the years and I want to pass that on to my students. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I believe the foundation of progress is consistency, so I try to establish routines with my students, spending part of each lesson on technical exercises, theory/aural skills training, and repertoire. I also set performance goals for students by organizing recitals *this has been more tricky during Covid, but I think it is important nonetheless to get students to perform from memory at least twice a year (once at the end of fall and spring terms).

Christian K

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Organ

I first started music at a young age through my local church; my first instrument being flute. I studied flute for many years before taking formal voice lessons. This led me to become a voice performance major at the Manhattan School of Music, where I sang lead roles in and outside of the school. In addition, I continued my flute studies as well as strengthen my piano skills. I've had the opportunity to perform at the Kimmel Center as soloist and chorister, Symphonic Space (NYC), as well as abroad in Italy and France. Read More

Samuel K

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Oboe

As a teacher, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing a student develop a passion for music. If my students do not leave every lesson feeling inspired, encouraged, and wanting to practice and play music, then I am not doing my job. Just as I tailor each lesson to match the individual student, expect the student to grow and develop as a musician at his/her own pace. Ultimately, music is universally accessible and I want to foster a love and appreciation for listening to music as well as performing music. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Breanne J

Instruments: Piano Voice Music

When will I start to see results?
It is individual to each student, but I would like to confidently say that after three to four lessons you should start hearing results! It is all about singing in a healthy way, and perfection is unrealistic, so don't be disheartened if it doesn't sound exactly like you want it to sound right away.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
As someone who is really bad about practicing herself, the advice I have is to split it up into chunks. Pick certain skills to work on each day, don't just sing through the piece as soon as you get it. Start by listening to it a few times to get it in your head, then go over the diction and look up any words you don't know. Then, figure out the story of the song. What are you singing about? Then, start the singing process. If you split this up over a week of practice, it will be a lot more effective than just cramming it all into one practice session. For piano practice, I strongly encourage putting in at least 30 minutes a day of practice. Piano can take a long time to learn, and it can be frustrating to mess up (believe me, I've been there). Practicing for at least half an hour a day will make a whole lot of difference, and make you more prepared for your lesson. It is a lot about muscle memory for piano.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I have taken piano and guitar as well, but voice is the instrument that I am the best at and most importantly, enjoy the most! I took piano for a long time, but just didn't have the passion for it that I have for voice, and I found it much more difficult, so that is why I chose voice! I have also self-taught myself guitar, but I use that mostly for songwriting! (Feel free to ask me about that during lessons as well!)

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My voice teacher back when I was between the ages of 10-18 inspired me to pursue music! She always believed in me and my abilities, and gave me a great foundation for entering college. She went to Indiana University, as well, so that is how I had even heard of the college in the first place.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
There isn't a yes or no answer to this question, but I would say once your child is at least 10 years old, and has shown some kind of passion for music/singing, then they are ready to start! A beginning student wouldn't need to have to start learning really complicated pieces or techniques, it is just baby steps at the beginning! For piano, I think that any age is appropriate to start! I know some kids who have started as young as toddlers!

Choosing a Saxophone Mouthpiece

...take home a few mouthpieces for a trial period (usually 7 to 14 days). Classical Mouthpiece vs. Jazz Mouthpiece   Saxophone mouthpieces are made with different purposes and applications in mind. Many jazz players play classical and vice versa. Young students usually start out playing classical and then venture to jazz, but still practice classical as a basis for good technique. A lot of colleges even combine jazz and classical curricula. There are even a few professional saxophone players that are known for playing both classical and jazz. If you plan on playing both classical and jazz saxophone, it’s a good idea to have... Read More

Clarinet Warm Ups: Exercises for All Levels

...  Warm-up routines are personal to each individual and are specific to each situation. You want to vary your warm up routine, on both a short-term and a long-term basis. You want to avoid monotony and make sure that you’re challenging yourself in new ways. Start with what you know, but always move on to what is difficult. Some parts of your warm-up routine, however, will remain unchanged. You may choose different scales or technical exercises each time you warm up, but long tones will always be a part of your routine.   The length of time it takes to ... Read More

Soloing Over Rhythm Changes

...an ascending and descending arch, and then go to the closest note (in the 1357 pattern) that would achieve this. This is a good exercise in basic improvisation. This is what’s called a “chord tone solo”. The idea is to create a solo using only chord tones (1357). My example is very basic. When practicing chord tone solos, you can use the notes in any order and should use more rhythmic variation in order to create rhythmic interest.     This example is a basic 1357 digital pattern used over the bridge.   When you’re playing chord tone solos, you ...

How To Write a Pop Song

...you feel like it needs a little oomph, consider writing a thoughtful bridge to change things up. Endings serve a similar purpose, but with an added finality and musical resolve.   When executed correctly, these sorts of transitional sections can add an elevated level of sophistication to your songwriting, but when thinking about how to write a pop song, keep in mind that more sections doesn’t translate to better songs. Daniel Johnston’s “True Love Will Find You In The End”—an indie-pop song widely loved by millions—consists of just two simple verses. No choruses, bridges, or instrumental sections needed. In songwriting, conveying a mood ... Read More

How to Use Belt Mix in Five Steps It should be emphasized that learning to use belt mix, like any other vocal technique, takes a lot of time and patience and should be done with the help of a teacher. Just remember that you are building the foundation for healthy, sustainable vocal production. Take a quick mental body scan—are you holding tension anywhere in the body unnecessarily? Are you locking your knees? Hunching forward? Gripping your jaw? If so, take a few minutes to do some gentle stretching to release tightness and set up a ... Read More
