Kirstin R

Instruments: Piano Voice

I began teaching voice during my undergraduate college years. Since then, I have taught both in-studio and in-home lessons. My students have consistently received high honors in solo and ensemble performances, as well as singing, leads in school and area productions. My piano students develop good beginning technique and theory skills that help prepare them as they move into the advanced repertoire. Both my piano and voice students perform in competitions regularly. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Keyboard Djembe Acoustic Guitar

My teaching style is very simple. With the fundamentals in place, it's possible to learn any song you want to. If there's a song that goes beyond a student's fundamentals, then that's what we'll learn next. As my music teachers told me, if you listen to a record and you find something on it that you don't know how to play, go back and learn how to do it! Listening and learning is essential to playing the music that you want to be able to play as quickly as possible. Read More

Alex T

Instruments: Voice

My teaching is rooted in the philosophy of functional singing, which means everything I teach has a purpose rooted in the physiology of singing. We do a lot of different exercises and say a lot of funny sounding words, but each exercise is carefully crafted to maximize training your voice's flexibility, agility, or strength. Similar to how you might do a bicep curl to make your bicep stronger, vocal exercises are part of a broader "vocal workout" regimen based on what your voice needs on any given day. Read More

Caroline H

Instruments: Piano Voice

I began teaching private music lessons a decade ago as an undergraduate music student. Working at a community music school, I volunteered to teach piano lessons and lead the choir. I fell in love with teaching and after receiving my Bachelors of Music in Vocal Performance, I began teaching private lessons and directing the commercial vocal ensemble at Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville. While working at Trevecca, I taught many different genres of music to music majors, music minors, and elective students. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Emily A

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The key to effective practice is organization. Organization helps you stay on task and stay focused. It is easy to get stuck on one passage or on one tricky exercise, and it's even easier to forget something you wanted to focus on after yesterday's practice. Everyone is different, but in order to stay organized, I keep a practice journal. After every practice session, I write down what I think my goals for the next day should be. Sometimes the notes are more detailed (they include specific goals I want to reach or how much time I should spend on one thing) and sometimes they are more broad (things I want to get to, which I can check off and save all un-checked items for the next day). I struggle with tendinitis, and so I have a very limited amount of time each day that I can practice without injuring myself. My practice journal helps me streamline my practice and make those few hours as productive as possible.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose the flute when I was 5 years old. I wasn't able to pick up the instrument until I was in third grade, though. In kindergarten, my music teacher would show us Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf from time to time. At the end of the movie, we were quizzed and asked to identify the instruments we had just heard. Time and time again, without fail, the only instrument I could identify was the flute: the sound of the birds. From that time forward, I knew I wanted to play the bird's music one day. It was a match made in heaven!

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session lasts at least two hours, and begins with warm-ups. Warm-ups are important for the body as well as the mind -- just like in sports. I warm up for about 30 to 45 minutes, and I alternate between several different exercises designed to improve technique and intonation. After that, I move onto etudes and orchestral excerpts. Finally, I work on my repertoire. In between all of this, I take breaks every 15 to 30 minutes. The breaks are just as important as the time spent practicing. During my breaks, I can rest my hands and mind, which is especially helpful after spending a half hour on frustrating and difficult material.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
It would be my dream to one day perform Maurice Ravel's Daphnis et Chloe Suite No. 2. I have studied excerpts from that piece for a few years now, and they are simply my favorite. Ravel is my favorite composer hands down, and the Suite No 2. from Daphis et Chloe is my favorite among the pieces he has written. The music is challenging, yet stunningly beautiful and captivating. I get goosebumps every time I listen to the piece, and I can't even imagine how much more wonderful it would be to perform it one day.

Jazz Scales: The Bebop Scale

...running the scale up and down in eighth notes over each chord (in measures 4 and 8, I use the mixolydian scale to transition more smoothly into the next chord). In addition to starting on the root, you should also start each scale on the third, fifth, and seventh. You should also start each scale descending in addition to the provided ascending example.       Once you are comfortable with running the scale over a tune, the next step is making it a part of your natural language. To do this, you should consciously apply it in a gradual way. You can play some... Read More

How To Play Six Great Songs From TV Shows On Guitar

...Knows Your Name,” by Gary Portnoy   Songs from tv shows are often a lot more sophisticated than you might think, and the Cheers theme song is a great example of masterfully crafted pop music that manages to sound catchy and accessible to the masses. On paper, songwriter and composer Gary Portnoy’s interesting choice of chord progressions looks like something far more advanced than a theme song for a television show, but the music here sounds light and approachable.     The Sopranos– “Woke Up This Morning,” by Alabama 3   We have British rock band Alabama 3 to thank for the fact that it’s impossible to think of the ...

...sound effects. Today, songwriting and composition careers look much different.   Labels, publishers and other agencies still hire songwriters, but not at the level they once did. The music industry used to run on a model of seeking out talent and developing bands and solo artists over an extended period with a multi-album contract. Part of this development included labels having their signed artists record the music of employed songwriters. The modern music industry is now in a tailspin because the money it heavily relies on from album sales has all but dried up with the emergence of music streaming ... Read More
