Benjamin M

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola

My method is very flexible and student specific. Everyone learns slightly differently and has their own unique strengths. In general, I have a "sound before sight" method. Students learn music thoroughly, aurally and theoretically before trying to read it off the page. Imagine trying to learn a language by being handed a book. We then use your innate understanding of the music to inform your technique and the way you approach the instrument. Read More

Instruments: Violin

Just like any other skill or passion, it is most fundamental to instill a sense of awareness and problem-solving. Whatever stage the student is in, I believe in teaching methods that help break down and conquer difficulties. Instead of treating music/violin playing like a mindless and repetitive process, I want to pass on the passion and excitement that has been taught to me. Combining the inherent connection to music that we all possess with the tools to exercise discipline and dedication to a craft are the keys to success in my opinion. Read More

David L

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola Double Bass

My teaching career began as a high school senior. I began taking time out of lunch and weekends to teach friends and beginners to play. It was such a joy that I continued that pattern through university and then jumped on the opportunity to start my own studio after graduating. My business included a music store studio space and traveling to some students' homesteaching violin, viola, cello, double bass, piano, guitar and even ukulele! Read More

Adrian J

Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Music

I teach Classically trained Violin, viola, and piano. I am equally comfortable teaching very beginners as well as high school and adult students. I am very honest in my feedback. I like to stick to the former. I strongly believe that a good, strong foundation leads to fewer problems in the future and makes the process of music-making much more enjoyable. My main goal is to help raise individuals, who are critical thinkers, who are passionate about what they do, and who will take their love of music into the adulthood whether playing it professionally or as an amateur.

Phil H

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Saxophone Clarinet Drums Bass Guitar Banjo Mandolin Tuba Keyboard Djembe Acoustic Guitar

I have taught nearly every instrument in a standard orchestra. I have taught singing, guitars and such, music theory composing and sight singing as well as sight reading and music history. It is always essential that the student is excited about the genre(s) we use in learning music. Yes if music is not fun then it is worthless. That being said fun is a many splendor thing. I started teaching guitar in my teens. Read More

Piano Tutorial For Complete Beginners

...to master some piano basics while teaching you theory at the same time.   Middle C, steps and note names on the piano   Many traditional pianos have 88-key keyboards, but you’ll stick to playing just one octave (an octave is a set of eight white keys). The first thing we’ll show you is where middle C is located on the keyboard. From this spot, you’ll learn every note name on the piano:       The piano’s keyboard is built off of repeating sets of white and black keys. The distance between one note (this includes white and black... Read More

Understanding Lead Sheet Notation

...lead sheets. If a jazz musician doesn’t know a tune, they’ll read it from a lead sheet in a rehearsal or performance situation. When jazz musicians compose tunes, sometimes they’ll write them out (at least initially) using lead sheet notation. Singers/Instrumentalists/Pianists: Lead sheets are used in several other genres of music other than jazz. Lead sheets are used often in popular music by singers or other instrumentalists with piano/guitar accompaniment. Some examples are: a singer performing a song from a Broadway musical with piano accompaniment (or full band accompaniment), a violinist performing holiday songs with piano, or people singing music at church ...

Types of Guitars: Acoustic, Electric, and Everything In-Between

...string acoustic guitar.   Classically strung acoustic guitars utilize nylon strings 3-6 of the strings. These nylon strings have a much more traditional and mellow sound, and they are much easier on your fingers. They allow for easier legato techniques, and these are the preferred strings for classical and flamenco style guitar playing. Because of the easier play-ability of these strings, intricate, fast, and complex riffs and patterns can be played more smoothly and effectively. These guitars are often smaller than their steel-strung counterparts, and as a result, they usually aren’t as loud. Generally, when playing a classical acoustic guitar, you position the ...

...operas and overtures were able to get off the ground.   Parts of an Opera: The Early History of the Overture   The word “overture” comes from the Latin word “apertura.” You may be familiar with the English word “aperture,” which refers to an opening or a hole. Considering the origins of the word, it comes as no surprise that “overture” is often used to describe the instrumental opening of an opera prior to the beginning of Act 1.     The roots of the opera Overture begin with the first surviving opera, Peri’s L’Euridice in the year 1600 (it ...

Opera Voice Types

...they handle higher passages better than typical dramatic baritones. For a Verdi example, listen to the title role in his opera Nabucco; for a non-Verdi option, try Scarpia from Puccini’s Tosca.   Bass-Baritones fill the gap between the traditional baritone tessitura and that of a bass. In short, these baritones have to sing lyrically in the baritone range while producing bass-like resonance in the lower tessitura. Wagner wrote demanding bass-baritone roles in Der Fliegende Hollander and the Ring Cycle, among others. Bass-baritone and basso cantante roles often overlap–we’ll get to basso cantante in a moment.   Bass At last we come to ... Read More
