Music Lessons in Sydney Harbour, TX

Instruments: Voice

With these songs we work on acting, interpretation, confidence and ease of singing. For my students who are more advanced and who's voices have begun to change, I work on technique and ease of vocal production. Singing should be easy and effortless, but it takes a lot of training and reflection to do it. I focus on classical vocal technique. I apply the same method of picking a song (something in Italian) and having the student pick a song. Read More

I am very passionate about music, and my goal is to pass that onto my students. I look for ways to keep them motivated by changing up the things we focus on and using fun teaching tools.

I have played professionally with the Brazosport Symphony in Lake Jackson, TX as their principal cellist, librarian, and manager. Read More

Instruments: Trombone Euphonium Tuba

For younger students, I like to start off with the fundamentals/basics to set a good foundation to what we will be learning in the future. Lip slurs, long tones, embouchure amp; tuning are all key assets for beginners. Now for my advanced players we will definitely start in the music bible (The Arban Book) and work from start to finish. This will definitely teach players about double/triple tonguing, octave leaps/jumps my personal favorite dynamics. Read More
