Tien L

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola Double Bass

I was assistant principal cellist of the Mississippi Symphony Orchestra for 15 years from 1987 to 2002. I was an Assistant Professor of Music at the University of Mississippi in Oxford from 1988 and 1998. After 1998, I teach cello at the prestigious Millsaps College in Jackson, Mississippi. I was also the Music Director and Conductor of the Mississippi Youth Symphony Orchestra for 9 years. During that time, I led the youth group on inaugural overseas concert tours to stages in Europe and China, reaching their highest level and largest audiences to the date. Read More

Jiawei Y

Instruments: Violin Viola Music

In addition to private studio teaching, both in-person and remote for 6 years, my teaching experience comes from being as an Adjunct Faculty in violin and viola for non-music majors at New York University, the orchestral viola coach at Mannes Prep Precollege Division, director of Chamber Music and violin/viola faculty at Thurnauer School of Music. My students at younger ages have passed auditions of prestigious music pre-college programs as well as school-region youth orchestra programs; college-age students have won scholarships at their colleges for music minors and double-majors.

Linda L

Instruments: Piano Violin

I use an organized step by step method as a general rule, depending on the students age and ability, seeking to have each student master the fundamentals of rhythm, note reading, technique and expression in a logical easy to understand way. I require practice at least 4 days a week to ensure progress. For preschool age children, I use the Wunderkeys method. I seek to minimize frustration, encourage students to e-mail with questions, use games as a learning tool and assign pieces they like and pieces that are standard repertoire. Read More

Siri H

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin

In college, I taught a handful of beginning violin students. Throughout college and my years post grad, Ive taught private and group dance lessons and focus on technique and confidence. I apply the same concepts to my music lessons and love helping students discover their personal voice. I encourage regular practice and personal compositions. Every student is different and I am hopeful to find the system that works for each one. Read More

Nicolette Y

Instruments: Violin Viola Fiddle

As a student I had many teachers who made me achieve at their pace and with their understanding of what the violin required. Ultimately the classical route did not give me enough freedom to play the way I wanted to. In my work as a teacher I have found that the pursuit of an instrument, though hard work, should fundamentally be enjoyable for the student. Whether it is finding the music that resonates deeply with you, or constructing practice assignments that are clear and achievable within a week, I want to connect with each student I teach and help them to find a regular rhythm in their lessons that keeps them feeling productive.

Angela C

Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola

For beginning string student's, I use Essential Elements for Strings and Schroeder method books. Once the student has grasped the basic fundamentals and note reading, I begin to introduce solo repertoire from the Suzuki String method. Along with technical studies and solo repertoire, the student will learn scales ranging from one to four octaves. For beginning piano student's, I use the Bastein Piano series. This method is complete with a method book, solo repertoire, theory studies and scales. Read More

Kristina C

Instruments: Violin

I start by setting realistic goals for each lesson, but I will not rush past something just to be able to finish the lesson plan I had written out for the day. The core fundamentals of violin are so important and believe that everything deserves adequate attention. Quality over quantity. I believe in giving student specific compliments, but children can tell when you are not being genuine, so I make sure to be thoughtful when giving them. Read More

Beginner Guitar Solos: Getting Started with Improvisation

...Scales Pentatonic scales are simple 5-note scales that are found in nearly every genre you can think of. If we can learn just one major and minor pentatonic scale shape, we’ll be able to borrow notes from those scales to learn how to create solos in any key. This is mandatory knowledge for anyone wanting to write, improvise, or imitate common solos found in popular music.     Major Pentatonic Scale:         Major pentatonic scales are basically just major scales with a few notes removed.

Jazz Scales: The Augmented Scale

...But then again, applying any scale to improvisation should be a trial and error process. You shouldn’t just play a diminished scale over a diminished chord because you know that it works there. It should be a sound in your ear; you should know what it’s going to sound like before it comes out. In order to accomplish this, you need to practice a given scale over different chords and in different situations. You should sit at a piano, play a chord, and play a scale in different permutations over that chord. That’s the only way to get a particular ... Read More

There are three main reasons musicians use and study etudes and technical studies:   To facilitate fingering and bowing technique To practice reading music or sight reading To develop muscular strength and coordination   The increasing difficulty inherent in most etude method books also serves as a constant challenge which helps the musician attain a higher level of playing and technique.

Why Music Theory Still Matters for Musicians

...to play specific frequencies.   Traditional theory still has its place and is still worth studying. This particularly applies to art and antique music. You could, of course, break down all the frequencies for the notes in one of Beethoven’s symphonies and understand the piece in that regard, but it wouldn’t give you insight into the composer’s thought process when he was writing the piece in the same way that studying the symphony in the framework of traditional theory would. Traditional theory training still has its place and, even in a world of electronic music, it’s still a very valuable tool to have ... Read More
