Scott B

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I have been passionate instructor and have been playing multi instruments for 15+ years. I graduated with a degree in Psychology and work as an ABA Therapist for autistic children. I have been in multiple bands and recorded a lot of songs. I have toured Michigan and the outer areas. I have had the opportunity to play at the Majestic Theater in Detroit, as well as St. Andrew's. Those were some of the most nerve wracking shows. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Music Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

While fairly new to teaching private lessons, I have taught musicians I have played with and other family members, friends, and others. I have encouraged everyone I have taught practical uses of the instrument that relates the music theory found in specific genres to more comprehensible techniques to use on the guitar. I take popular songs that are familiar to the student, and use the songwriting to help show the practicality and musical nature of theory. Read More

Nicholas C

Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Bass Guitar Double Bass

Music has always been my full-time profession. At the age of 13 I started playing bass in local bands professionally. After high school, I embarked on a collegiate musical journey, which led me to stays at Columbia College in Chicago, Bowling Green State University (where I received a full tuition scholarship) and Wayne State University. During that time, I have always kept up a busy lesson studio and performance schedule. During the last 8 years I have performed over 150 times per year, all over the country. Read More

Matthew D

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums

I am a versatile and engaging musician with 14 years of experience performing and composing in a wide variety of genres: Jazz, rock, hip-hop, folk, classical, electronic, electroacoustic, avant garde, ambient, soul, punk, etc. This is a resource that has proven to be invaluable in teaching students with a wide range of interest to help them develop both in technique and in finding their own voice on their instrument. In the past 7 years I have completed a Bachelor's Degree at McGill University in Montreal (Performance Jazz Drums), have performed at international festivals in Toronto and Montreal, have toured with various projects, scored two short films, and composed and produced two albums of my original music. *Note: I teach drums at all skill levels - piano and guitar from novice - intermediate.

Antonio C

Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

My teaching style is very process oriented. Goals are set, but are the natural outgrowth of well developed plans and consistent effort. I strive to inspire my students with the passion for playing and the act of making music, rather than the goals of perfection or winning a competition. Personally, music has always been a way for me to understand and enrich my life in more meaningful ways than I ever could have imagined. Read More

Michael H

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer

For beginning students, I start with the traditional Mel Bay (or comparable) beginner books that focus on the fundamentals while building strength and coordination and just build from there.  For students with a little more experience, I like to focus on more challenging exercises and concepts while nurturing their knowledge of music theory and performance.  Each student is different and knowing what motivates them motivates me.  My goal is to have them want to pick up their instrument and play.

...Little Star,” he is ready for lessons. The same applies to being in the studio. If a child can’t sit still, parents will want to make arrangements so that the child can safely be taken outside when he has had enough. When it comes to noise, don’t be worried about small stuff. Dropping a pencil or having the cell phone ring accidentally isn’t a major incident. Let the parent deal with the disruption quickly and move on. We know that accidents happen.

...that long tones have to offer. When playing long tones, you want to listen for intonation and for a steady tone. Ideally, you would play your long tones with a tuner, so you make sure you’re playing in tune throughout the entire range of the horn. You want the tone to be straight, steady, and un-wavering. If you can’t keep a steady tone, that’s okay. It will just take some practice. But, a steady tone is the ultimate goal. You should set your metronome to quarter note = 60 and try to hold each tone for about ten beats.     ... Read More

It’s better to wind up with something that is a little too small than to have an instrument that is too large. Work with your teacher to find the best fit. It may take some searching through a number of different instruments, or even several stores. But finding correct violins for beginners is key to giving students the best start possible. It’s how great musicianship begins – with a careful ... Read More

...those notes and phrases), which is essential to any singer’s ear training. Additionally, because one scale typically covers several pitches spanning an octave, practicing scales challenges and expands the vocal range.     Scales can be sung in a variety of ways and offer the opportunity for customization depending on each singer’s needs and goals. For example, the singer can choose whether to sing a scale on vowels or solfège syllables, whether to sing an ascending scale, a descending scale, or both methods combined as one vocal exercise, and which direction to develop within the vocal range.   I’ve listed ...

...at the optimal base width depends on a couple variables, and depending on your particular setup, some trial and error will be necessary. Fundamentally, each base should be set as wide as possible given space limitations (the reason for this I hope is obvious). Smaller base widths are fine for lighter cymbals, and the widest you can manage for heavier, larger cymbals, or very heavy-hitting drummers (relax cowboy, they have microphones at the club)! Adjusting the high-hat stand can take some getting used to, but the main concern is having the foot pedal flat on the floor. And finally, the throne. Opinions vary on throne ... Read More
