Instruments: Guitar Violin Bass Guitar Mandolin Electric Violin Fiddle Double Bass Music Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I have fun with my students. They learn to play songs that they want to play, and I provide theoretical and technical instruction within that framework. Learning to play an instrument is a lifelong endeavor which provides both challenge and satisfaction. I'm an active listener and seek to understand each student's needs and goals. Education is a two-way street, and I learn from my students as they learn from me. Read More

Carly R

Instruments: Piano Violin

Having fun is the most important thing in my studio! This is achieved through setting and attaining specific goals and keeping a student engaged with the decision making process of what they want to play. It takes a couple of lessons for me to get to know how the student learns but once I do, I will adapt my teaching style to how a student learns best while still encouraging them to learn in different and new ways.

Instruments: Violin Viola Electric Violin

My main focus with string instruments is sound development - how to use the bow properly and get a beautiful sound from the instrument first and foremost. I typically use Sound Innovations for Strings for beginning students, and start supplementing with different repertoire as we get further into lessons. For beginning students, we start with a proper hold, left hand set up, and only after that do we get to using the bow so we can focus on getting the best sound possible out of the instrument.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Recorder Electric Violin Fiddle Double Bass Euphonium French Horn Tuba Piccolo Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Oboe Bassoon English Horn

I ask all of my students to be prepared for their lessons with a notebook and pencil for lesson notes and assignments. I ask them to bring any materials they have and will often recommend books and supplemental material I have had success with. I believe in writing down notes that help students understand what they are learning, exactly what students should practice, and setting goals for their practice and overall progress. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Andrew C

Instruments: Voice

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
The first thing we do is talk. We discuss any discoveries or abnormalities you have experienced since your previous lesson, and consider the implications. Then we will warm-up your voice. Different vocal exercises are used to achieve different results in training, and as such, will take up the majority of our time together. I will explain, in detail, what we are trying to accomplish, and will spend a lot of time modeling good and bad technique to help guide you towards the next step. Then I will assign certain vocal exercises and goals until our next time together, slowly building at your learning pace. Depending on what your needs are, we may spend the latter part of the lesson on learning how to pronounce in a different language, read music, music theory, music history, or practicing practical pieces of music. In the past, I have helped high school students prepare for state competitions, state festivals, and college auditions. I have also helped students prepare for recitals, community auditions for choir and musical theater, and for church and local community performances.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
When I was in college, I quickly decided that I loved teaching more than performing. However, I was frustrated by the number of teachers I met who didn't have the knowledge, experience, or skills of a performer. So I decided to double major in Music Education and Vocal Performance, mastering both worlds. Bringing a complete performer's perspective to my students is beyond valuable. And bringing the music education training into a private lesson helps me be an efficient planner. My biggest passion was teaching through choir, however. I have ten years of experience with school, church, college, and community choirs. And so, I also earned a Master of Music in Choral Conducting, where I continued mastering my voice studies in the process.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Choir: I'm looking forward to the day where I can conduct the "Lux Aeterna" by Morten Lauridsen with a choir. It is a gorgeous, modern choral major work of five movements that is thirty minutes long. Voice: I'm working on a recital of all sacred music. The killer piece in it is a three movement African Spiritual work by John Carter called "Anthem". The tenor line loves to play with high Bb and B natural, which are some of the most difficult notes for sopranos and tenors to sing full voice. I'm taking my time learning this one.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I've gone "all in" with being a musician. It has been my life for the past fifteen years. I figured that the best way I could improve my chances of being a successful musician was to work at it hard enough to be better than most other people. And there are many avenues to being a successful musician. I'm a choral conductor first and foremost. I especially love teaching church and community choirs. I can sing and teach voice, of course. That's why we are here! I have spent five years as a teacher in public schools. I am also a composer and publisher of choral music. For me, I don't have an option not to be a musician because I don't really have any other skills. And that's basically what my first conducting teacher told me my sophomore year of college. "If you think you can be happy doing anything else in the world, walk out this door and go do that instead." I didn't walk out that door. And I know I couldn't be happier doing anything else.
