For beginner students we start by grasping the concept that make up music in a practical way. The specific bibliography changes from student to student and form instrument to instrument. In the path of becoming better there's is a lot of resources out there that range from composition to specific theory books. Its just a matter of a personalized attention to the specific needs of the student. I am big into Open Source and No-Copyright material that can be used. Read More

In order for younger students to learn classical music, basic theory and singing techniques, I use resources such as coloring pages, word searches, and games that keep students engaged in a fun learning process. As well as practical and safe application of the voice. Many of the singing techniques that I pass onto my students come from similar instructions you would receive at notable schools such as Berklee College of Music. Read More

I encourage my students to practice daily and to take care of their instruments. I tell my students that I believe that if you really want to be a singer, musician, and entertainer if you never give up eventually you will achieve your goals. Success is measured by your own happiness, short term and long term goals. Everyone goals are different so helping my students begin the journey to there goals is very fulfilling even if it is not to perform and only to learn a new craft or experience a new hobby.

Instruments: Piano Voice

My method makes understanding the breathing, support and execution of the voice the first priority.After this is achieved, exercises are assigned to further develop range, control, strength and vocal agility. The bottom line is that although it takes years to develop a strong, skillful and sensitive singer, it should not take years for a singer with good tutelage and a willingness to work hard, to sing competently. So without the ability of the student to make a good tone and control the voice, all the exercise cds and books are useless. Read More
