Catherine C

Instruments: Piano Voice Flute

I have always focused on teaching each student holistically. I hope to influence students in their discovery of music through various modalities of learning, including visual, auditory, proprio-kinesthitic (movement), with a special focus on audiation. During piano and flute study, we explore the instruments as acoustical marvels and the students' interactions with them. Voice lessons always involve the whole body and mind. Listening homework is as important as practicing. I teach simple editing and technology to supplement the experience. Read More

Joseph H

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Ukulele Recorder French Horn Piccolo Orchestral Percussion Keyboard Electric Guitar Djembe

My style is focused but fun! I ask my students to practice every day. While this may sound daunting, it's really the only way to make progress in music. My students know that I have many different ways to teach something, and I never give up! When a student struggles with a concept or technique, I love to dive into the nitty gritty of the situation until we've found a solution. Read More

Sarah R

Instruments: Piano Voice Music

I am a passionate, hard-working singer and instructor who loves to encourage and motivate beginning and intermediate singers to become more confident in their study of music. In 2019, I graduated from Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music with my Masters in Early Music Voice, where I engaged in intense performance study of baroque and renaissance music along with many other styles. My performances and recordings have a particular focus on early seventeenth-century English and Italian vocal repertoire, which gives me the unique opportunity to allow historical research to inform my performances of the repertoire.

Steven S

Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Double Bass

I began teaching lessons in college when I was in a piano pedagogy class. At that time, I also began teaching private band and string instruments. I had a student teaching experience where I was able to teach band instruments with students in grades 5-8. After that experience I accepted a job in North Carolina as an orchestra director. I also taught choir students, and I taught private piano and string students on the side. Read More

Morgan S

Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard

My teaching experience dates back to my undergraduate days as I began teaching private lessons around eight years ago. Since then, I have been consistently teaching students in local studios and in their homes for the last 5.5 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument.

Emily R

Instruments: Piano Clarinet

I have been a private lesson instructor of students in grades 4-12 for over 6 years. I have experience and familiarity with multiple teaching methods and repertoire, and I always do my best to personalize the lesson experience for each individual student. I also recently completed my student teaching experience within the State College Area School District. Each day for a total of over five months, I worked with students in the elementary and high school level across bands, choirs, general music, and small group lesson instruction. Read More

If the Cheers theme song makes complicated music seem simple, this song does just the opposite. “Woke Up This Morning” is built off of just two chords: Fm and Bb.     Friends– “I’ll Be There For You,” By The Rembrandts   For a lot of people, the catchy theme song from the show Friends largely defined the sound of the 1990’s.

Jazz Scales: The Whole Tone Scale

...a few reasons. The interval between each note is the same. The only other scale like this is the chromatic scale. The whole tone scale is comprised completely of whole steps, like the chromatic scale is comprised completely of half steps. Because of this, if there is no underlying chord as a point of reference, it is impossible to tell what the root of the scale is. Also, since there are no half steps, there is no “leading tone” sound. The result of this sound (or lack of sound) is hard to put into words. I’ve heard people describe it as sort ... Read More

...with, the plight of braces! Should You Buy or Rent a Flute With a beginning flutist I would recommend renting first. Yamaha is a really reliable brand. Armstrong or Gemeinhardt are also solid choices. If the student is young and has a hard time holding the instrument, you could consider renting a flute with a curved headjoint (a “candycane” headjoint) to make holding the instrument more comfortable. Once the student progresses, he or she could look into purchasing a more advanced model with open hole keys and a B foot joint.
