Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums French Horn Oboe
I truly believe that all learning, while serious in nature, should be fun and exciting in methodology. Living in the age of technology, there are so many ways to make learning fun and interesting for students. Whether it be sharing information from Youtube, educational sites such as The Teaching Channel, using digital music apps such as "Smart Music" for assessment, showing a student how to record themselves on their smartphones, all of these things can be brought in to the instructional experience.

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Euphonium Oboe Bassoon
I am very familiar with all of the standard piano methods, and will evaluate the student in the first few lessons to choose a method that they will be the most comfortable with. I supplement all lessons with music theory and outside repertoire, allowing the students to choose from their favorite genres/artists. For theatre, musical theatre, and vocal coaching, I also employ Linklater and Alexander techniques. I also really enjoy exposing students to styles, genres or artists that they might not be familiar with along with the history behind the music they're learning! Read More

I Try to get away from mechanism without joy. Everything has to be close to the music. Exercises to be actually doing them with a rhythm and time. Other than doing things musically, practicing in different times and intentions help a lot for the student to be open to play songs in different ways. Technique and theory are necessary tools. To apply concepts musically they need to do it with musical taste. Read More

It has been a great experience working with everyone and to see how excited they got to see me. I am patient and love to learn each students needs and their learning styles. I am very empathetic and I care about my students and their needs and to see them grow and their talents flourish. I love to teach different musical styles such as classical, pop, musical theater, and more. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I believe it is important to build a strong technical foundation and knowledge of the mechanics of the voice, while also focusing on performance and real-world musicianship. With contemporary music theory (beginning to advanced) integrated into each lesson, students learn to understand and apply a musical vocabulary that is necessary to communicate in the industry. As a vocalist myself, I think too often singers have trouble communicating with their bands in a rehearsal setting or with producers and engineers in a recording setting; therefor I see the benefit in students being able to identify the grooves and "feels" of their selected pieces as well as being able to count-in a band.

I have developed my skill set through experience as a professional musician, songwriter, and band member. My specialty is guitar, as I have a degree in Guitar Performance from the California Institute of the Arts, and I also teach piano, voice, and ukulele. I also love to help students write music to express their creativity. As a musician, I have had the opportunity to perform, write, and record professionally with a very dedicated group of musicians.

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?
