Caroline S

Instruments: Piano Voice

This is because in my seven years of teaching I have observed that much of what students struggle with is habitual tension, whether physical or psychological. Therefore, it doesn't matter what kind of music a student wants to sing as long as they approach the material from a relaxed and grounded place physically and mentally. My students will not only take consistent lessons (properly customized to what they need to learn that month, week, or session) but they will actively seek out opportunities to perform what they have learned in a public setting.

Sunbin K

Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer

My approach to teaching is student-centered and based in learning to practice "smart," not "hard." I never loved practicing myself, so I have learned to get the most out of my time at the keyboard. Younger students and busy adults generally appreciate this approach! Of course, there is struggle, and that's all a part of it, but it needn't be arduous or painful. I focus students immediately on what they would most like to accomplish, and together we map out the steps to get to that place. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I am all about making sure that my students are receiving enthusiasm and inspiration. I think the best way is to customize every lesson to each student and their learning style. I like to create lesson plans/practice schedules so that my student and I can keep track of growth and accomplishing goals. I will help the student in whatever way I can to achieve their musical goals. I make myself available for any student. Read More

Jill W

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
My student Patrick Wilhelm, Baritone, has graduated from the Curtis Conservatory of Music and is now singing as a principal artist with Virginia Opera and Wolftrap Opera Company in DC. He has sung in recitals internationally and has excellent reviews!

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music does run in my family. My grandfather was a well-know Jazz musician photographer. We grew up listening to jazz and classical musical day and night. My brother became a well know Jazz musician and teacher in San Francisco. He plays Clarinet, Sax and flute. He is a recording artist and travels all over the world spreading jazz from place to place. He is the conductor of a Cartoon Jazz Band, Saxophone Sextet and two Big Bands. I travelled the classical route beginning in Jr High School. After my college studies, I went to work with The New York City Opera with The wonderful Beverly Sills. Following that, I started my own Acapella chorus called “Ah-Capella” which performed in various NYC venues. Broadway then was my calling, where I stayed in the producing and casting sector for a decade. i have been teaching Voice and Piano privately for two decades. I also sing in The Cecilia Chorus of New York which performs twice a year in Carnegie Hall. I am a Section Leader with this extraordinary chorus which I have been sing with for nine years.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing about being a singer/musician, is that every day is different. Since singers depend on their breath to support their tone, we must treat out instrument, which are our bodies, with great care. Humidity, cold, performing environment, all play into how we may breathe and produce sound. As a pianist as well, I know when I need to play an A, it will be there on the piano every time. Singers must warm up and nurture their instrument to the best of their ability so they can produce that A everyday.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Look forward to practicing. It is a wonderful investment in your musicianship. It is time you deserve to focus on your craft. Isolate the specified measures that need the extra time. Repetition is key. Set a goal, i.e, “ I will play these four measures perfectly five consecutive times.” If you make an error during the third time, you must start from the first time. After you have completed this goal, implement it into the piece and your practice time will be golden.

Understanding Time Signatures in Music

...  This aptly named song is a great example of 3/4 in a popular music context. This time signature groups strong beats into threes, and many waltzes and dances are written around this common meter.   4/4 “Hey Jude” by The Beatles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_MjCqQoLLA     This time signature is so common that it’s sometimes referred to as “common time”. Like “Hey Jude,” music written in 4/4 is usually simple, predictable, and designed for a wide audience.   5/4 “Take Five” by Dave Brubeck     Jazz legend Dave Brubeck’s “Take Five” is popular music’s most easily recognizable song that features five quarter notes per measure.

Jazz Scales: The Diminished Scale

...the intro is revealed. We now know the construction of the diminished scale and how to apply it to chords. But we don’t always want to just run the diminished scale whenever we see a chord that it fits over. That’s boring. We can manipulate the scale to make it sound more interesting. Think about practicing the major scale. You probably have certain exercises you practice. Maybe you run the major scale, then practice it in thirds, practice it in diatonic triads, etc. You can do all of these with the diminished scale as well. In addition, here are a few public domain diminished scale patterns: ... Read More

5 Easy Hard Rock Songs for Guitar Beginners

...Many new guitar students are inspired by the modern and classic rock they hear on a day to day basis. While learning the fundamentals of the instrument is essential to the development of all aspiring musicians, it is important to show students how these techniques and theories are present in the rock music that inspired them to pick up the guitar in the first place. Few things can motivate a student to practice harder and devote themselves to the instrument better than hearing themselves emulate the songs and artists that inspired them. With that in mind, here are 5 easy hard rock songs for guitar from several eras that ... Read More
