Andrew W

Instruments: Guitar

I taught at Lockport Music Center under Ralph Fava, who was an advocate of the Berkley teaching method. I also have taught private lessons for 7 plus years. I have played in Progressive rock bands in Buffalo N.Y. such as Paradyme and Weaponex. Read More

Rob D

Instruments: Guitar Voice Trumpet Bass Guitar

Hello! I'm a professional, full-time musician.  I studied music and performed through high school and college. Professionally I've been performing for over 30 years, and teaching music privately for over 15 years.  I perform primarily in Arizona, but have performed elsewhere in the U.S., and in Mexico as well. As a teacher, my primary goal is to pass on love of music by helping you learn whichever instrument you choose. I'll help you learn ways to strengthen and enhance your skills, and even help you prepare for performance if you wish. Read More

Gerry D

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Harmonica Lap Steel Guitar Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Recorder Conga Latin Percussion

I write all my own lesson materials focusing on what the student needs to know to play, understand, and enjoy music to achieve their goals. I have used several method books in the past but find them all limited or focused on styles or technique that is not what the student wants or needs to learn. I can teach from any established method if that is preferred, but instead enjoy challenging the student to understand what music is and how music is played on their chosen instrument, not just to read.

Aaron W

Instruments: Guitar Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Euphonium Mallet Percussion Music Acoustic Guitar

I'm a passionate and curious musician. I'm self-taught in the styles of classical and jazz from when I picked up the clarinet I found at a Salvation Army at the age of 10. I taught myself until I started college and studied with Kelly Lake, Stephanie Gardner and currently with Jeff Quamo. While working toward receiving my Masters in Clarinet performance at NAU, I taught music theory and aural perception at the undergraduate level. In addition to teaching I've had two pieces written and recorded for me along with a couple tracks on a comedian's recent albums.

Taylor S

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My methods, of course, depend on the student but I usually start using the same materials that I started with. That combined with other curricula such as Rock School and others, I am able to identify which path will be best for the student. Teaching the student one of their favorite songs towards the beginning always helps the student get the fire and passion they need to become a guitar master. Read More

Alexis E

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin

I began teaching lessons while workibg on my Master's degree. While tutoring a classmate on guitar, I realized that I really enjoyed teaching and decided to pursue more students. My music therapy training gives me a unique approach to education enabling me to tailor all of my students lessons to their personal goals and needs. I enjoy teaching a variety of styles, from classical to contemporary, as well as giving my students performance opportunities to really be able to challenge themselves. Read More

Ruben M

Instruments: Guitar

Hello, thank you for viewing my profile. I see myself as a lifelong student and believe knowledge and skills should be nurtured and passed on and get a great sense of accomplishment from teaching. I am a recent graduate from Arizona State University having earned a Bachelor's Degree in Music Performance studying the classical guitar. Prior to that I was a self-taught electric player playing at local churches and playing with local bands before beginning a formal education. Read More

Rhythm Notation: Learning to Read Basic Rhythms

...and comprehend even the most basic rhythms. Today I’ll walk you through some rhythm notation basics to help you get confident with your rhythm reading no matter what instrument you play.     Music Notation Vs. Rhythm Notation   Rhythm notation falls under the broader category of music notation. Its purpose is to accurately describe the rhythms we hear in the world around us and in the pieces of music we’re trying to play and understand. This form of notation isn’t any different than music notation unless it’s notating music that’s to be played on a non-pitched instrument like a... Read More

Why Drummers Use Stick Control

...a number of ways: in creating or varying basic rock, jazz, or funk (and beyond) patterns, in creating fills, and in soloing.   We’ll look at just one basic exercise in Stick Control and how we can apply these three methods (understanding that almost all of the book- if not in fact all- can be used in this way).   Exercise #5 is famously the rudiment known as the paradiddle (minus the standard accents):   Looking at our 1st category of variations, let’s add just a couple of simple foot (bass drum and high hat) patterns:   Of course, there is no ...

Types of Trumpets: Keys, Size, History, and Performance Practice

...orchestral playing because of its slightly brighter sound. The C trumpet is pitched a step higher than the B flat (due to slightly shorter tubing), and as a result, the tone projects a little bit more than the B flat. Apparently, that slight increase in brightness is important enough that the C trumpet is now the instrument of choice for American orchestral players. Transposing trumpet music while playing a C trumpet is not difficult, since the difference is only one step. The D Trumpet Once instrument makers realized they could essentially make a trumpet for every occasion, a D trumpet came ... Read More

Five Factors to Consider When Buying a Piano

...piano, the size of your living space should be taken into consideration. For example if you live in a small apartment in New York City, a larger piano may not be feasible, whereas if you are taking piano lessons in Houston and have a larger house, a grand piano could be a good option. The acoustics of the piano will also be impacted by the size of the room, so that should be taken into consideration as well. Upright pianos and baby grand pianos are commonly used in learning and practicing settings, but full sized keyboards with weighted keys are ... Read More

The Best Age to Start Piano Lessons

...I started piano lessons when I was 3 years old, when I was still talking gibberish. In retrospect, I think I could have waited a year or two to start piano lessons. I wasn’t ready emotionally, but my mother, being an eager parent, felt the earlier the better. As a piano teacher today, I am often asked the question: what is the best age to start piano lessons? Generally speaking, I would recommend ages 4 or 5 and older—but since every child is unique in his development and abilities, I would advise you to review the following. Emotional readiness: Emotional maturity is necessarily because learning to play the piano requires patience, concentration and repetition. The student should be able ... Read More

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
