The methods have to suit the child and vice versa. I like to began all students by really getting to know their (and their parents') ability, history, desires, needs, wants, ect. I like to base my teaching pedagogy purely around the child, the family, and their learning skills. Everybody is different and it's my job to explore all avenues that the student wants to accomplish in their musical experience. I have taken classes and studied Kodaly, Suzuki, and various other psychological approaches to education. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Recorder
From Newbreed to Chapin to Afro-Cuban Rhythm for drum set, there are many methods that are worth exploring. That being said, sometimes learning songs (covers) can be the best way to learn quickly and it can be a lot of fun. Something I've done many times too is writing precise exercises for students in order to address and target specific needs. Let's say a student has difficulty with his ghost notes on his/her left hand, I can easily come up with fun exercises in order to speed up the progress and get improvements for that student.

Instruments: Piano Voice
Meeting my students where they are at and focusing on their individual needs is the most important thing. And taking away pressure. Learning how to sing is a journey you embark upon. Singing is a joyfull, fun way to grow as a person and as an artist. It takes concentration and focus, though and a willingness to try out new things and very importantly: patience with oneself. I find, especially young adults can gain so much confidence by singing and by making music in general. Read More
Instruments: Voice
My favorite statement to my students is, Be good with the weird. I say this because often times we make crazy sounds and do strange exercises in the learning process, but I promise it pays offplus, Ill do the weird with you! Regardless of what you need help with, we will build on where youre currently at and find specified ways to work on your needs. Its so important to remember that we only have a limited time together - so my goal is to give you the tools and get you feeling comfortable to follow through with the techniques to work on them in your own time (in between our lessons).

Instruments: Voice
I am a singer/songwriter/producer. I started teaching vocals due to the high amount of inquiries for lessons by my fans and their parents. I am proud to have lived in New York and to have supported myself solely with earnings from teaching live performances and private vocal instructions. I had an original band and I established my own record label. Currently I reside in Los Angeles, California where I slowed down on gigging and devoting myself to family. Read More
Instruments: Voice
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Probably the 1st song on my website "Sophisticated Lady" by Duke Ellington, sung at the large theatre of Berklee would be one.
Having written 3 books on singing and having them published by Mel Bay, Inc. would be another.
Doing solos with the Boston Symphony and recording with them as well as singing solos at Carnegie Hall and Columbia University in New York City would be others.
Probably my biggest accomplishment would be teaching Voice at Berklee College of Music, where I learned more than at any previous school!
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Yup, several of my students have gone on to become Voice Professors themselves. (I believe they are listed on my website)
Charlie Sorrento became a full Professor at Berklee College
Marlon Saunders has recorded several albums and appeared as well as sang on a Disney film.
One student whom I taught had a huge rock hit with the band Till Tuesday: "Voices Carry."
Others have gone on to successful careers in Christian music, both performance, song writing and arranging.
Hopefully there are others about whom I don't even know!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I'd say the most difficult thing to master would be allotting time to vocalize daily, yet do the reading, physical training and other disciplines that contribute to the totality of an excellent singer.
It's the reading and thinking that are the real crux here.
Once your thinking is right, the rest just seems to fall in place. So I guess I'd say that maintaining a life balance that is healthy, positive and forward thinking are the answer to the "hardest thing" question.
Joyce Lucia, Professor of Voice
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I begin by some physical activity; perhaps a few abdominal crunches on a Stability Ball and/or cardio.
Next, I hum, then sing on a single vowel to attain the focus and range I want.
Singing songs on a vowel comes next.
I consider all the aforementioned things as warmup (maybe 10 minutes.)
I spend the rest of the lesson working on my solos for that week, preparing sheet music; listening to versions of the song I like best, then lastly singing with a background track. Much of the final singing is done through a microphone on the P.A. I keep in my music room. Some times I actually record the singing so I may send copies of songs to various folks.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Yes, I use the ones I wrote while teaching at Berklee. Basically, the books follow the beliefs I have about learning to sing. There are sections on range, vowels and consonants, what to practice, how to document it. There's even a section on diaphragmatic breathing, which, although needn't be known, being able to do it will differentiate your singing from that of someone who DOESN'T know how to do it.
I try to use contemporary comparisons, rather than look back to the way folks sang in the 1600's. Makes sense, no?
