Or even before begiining Band, if I find a student who is very well at reading Music, I will not hesitate to recommend that student for Band; sometimes as early as Grade 3. My students are always rewarded for their efforts. I will spend an amount of my budget for rewards of all sorts; sometime during the school year, and always at the end of the School Year. My parents are always pleased, in that I encourage all who want to participate as well. Read More

Scott P

Instruments: Guitar Cello Bass Guitar

As I mentioned in my Methods statement, I am more interested in seeing a student become a great musician as opposed to just a great instrumentalist. Emotion and interpretation are a big part of a student's musicality, and I will focus on that as a student progresses. In my own journey I have played a number of different musical styles and all have given me a greater appreciation for music. Read More

Steve S

Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Acoustic Guitar

It’s always great to see improvement in a student nothing is more rewarding than that. I strive to have a relaxed teaching environment and persona for the student which makes the work more productive on both levels so that the student feels comfortable in the learning environment. I also would recommend an amount of practice that is recommended for any student that is willing to put in the work for what ever they are trying to achieve be it professional or amateur playing level.

Music has held a major position in my life since I was very young. I began composing music before I was in school. I began taking piano lessons when I was four years old. I studied voice and was trained by professional choir director Bill Graham for several years. I played trumpet in middle school and was first chair. I toured nationally with the NC boys choir. I picked up guitar at age fourteen and began teaching myself. Read More

I love seeing my students reach their goals (no matter how big or how small). The smile, sense of satisfaction, and confidence that I see in my students as they progress gives me a great sense of humility to be able to work with such great students week after week and many times year after year. From beginners who have never played a note in their life to advanced students who have played for years I enjoy sharing the joy of music with each of them. Read More

When I think about a student learning wintry to put myself in there shoes. They want to feel like they have something to show for the time that they were the class session. . if we have an hour session and at the end of the session they can go out and show off what they learned then they will. It be as motivated to come back.... So my method is to teach them while at the same time giving a practical aspect where they have something that can show and practice to develop the skill learned in the proviso session. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child has not developed the necessary strength to hold an instrument, practicing will be of little avail as they need time to mature. However, regardless of when they can start, I would highly recommend that you have them get started with exposing them to all different types of music. This is especially true if your child is anywhere from third trimester to 2-3 years of age where they can either harness or "prune" off the natural born ability to hear music with what's been called absolute pitch or perfect pitch recognition. Plus, listening to music will inspire them to learn more about the subject giving them a great advantage that I never experienced in my early years. Help them out; it's really darn important to get them involved ASAP!

When will I start to see results?
If all goes well, the first day you should have seen and felt elevations by way of building passion and desire to learn and gain more from your future experiences. However, just as many people fail in many other endeavors in life, it is possible that if no efforts are made, that you will not see results, EVER! That's right, why not address the elephant in the room, which is to say, you will learn in due time that the student is the best teacher. As my favorite teacher and professor passed on to me his phrases, I will forward them to you: Embrace the Process, Trust the Process, Enjoy the Process!

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Being efficient is a product of acquiring and honing various tools. Over time they will allow you to master any type of music with ease and great enjoyment. There's a long list of tools that I, or any competent educator for that matter, can offer you. It's important to use one tool at a time for maximum benefit. Three of the most effective tools I have come across for simple mastery thus far: is singing all of the melody, singing the harmonic layers separately - but treated like a melodic line, and singing the bass. It is important to note that while singing, we must have a clear musical intent in mind so as to transfer this musicality to our instruments. The final tool, for now, is practicing v e r y s l o w l y. It should seem meditative. While being fully aware of mind and body, we can pinpoint the errors of our understanding greatly with this tool. Overall, if you give time and effort, in an accurate and consistent manner, and rotate the use of these tools, over long periods time but broken up in small manageable goals, one can achieve a staggering amount of progress in minimal amounts of time. It's fun to practice getting better! From my experience, I highly recommend having a dedicated teacher to help teach and develop these tools with the student.

...in frequency. Wah-wah effects pedals are prominently used in funk and hip hop genres.     Tremolo   Sometimes referred to as the “underwater effect,” the tremolo effect pedal does not deliver a vibrato effect, despite what you may have heard. The main difference between vibrato and tremolo is that vibrato effects pitch while tremolo manipulates volume. Guitar masters like B.B. King and Eric Clapton often employ this effect directly in their playing, but a tremolo pedal delivers the effect by a circuit that automatically turns the signal up and down.     Octave Generator     An effect pedal that produces notes an...

Here’s the basic techniques that I aim for. Verse: Finger-plucking with a staccato rhythm that reflects the way that Bieber approaches the song as well.

The role of Sieglinde in Die Walküre also exemplifies the Wagnerian Soprano, and Abigaille from Nabucco demonstrates the more traditional dramatic soprano voice.   The Mezzo Soprano Simply put, the mezzo soprano voice fits between the soprano range and the contralto range (see below).
