Karl B

Instruments: Voice

In the summer of 2021, he was Don Basilio in MIOperas production of Il barbiere di Siviglia. One year before that, Karl was seen in a production of The Magic Flute with Opera North, singing the role of Speaker. The performances took place in the mountains of Cornish, New Hampshire. He was also scheduled to sing Monterone in ONs production of Rigoletto, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the performances were canceled. Read More

Fei M

Instruments: Voice Music

Besides my strong passion for performance, I wholeheartedly know my purpose is to teach. As a vocal teacher, my vocal teaching method starts with a deep understanding of the fundamentals of the human voice. Therefore, I encourage my students to dig deeper with their studies through body mappinga method of knowing how the body functions in singing at a physiological level. Many of my students have achieved success. For example, some of them have had success in being admitted into world-renowned colleges and conservatories, including Xi'an Conservatory of Music, New England Conservatory, Berklee College of Music, Harvard University, etc. Read More

Rachel F

Instruments: Guitar Voice

I worked in a pre-school for over three years before I decided to pursue music fully. I began by establishing my own band with our own unique musical style that incorporates influences from cultures through out the world! Working with my band, I would sometimes give them singing lessons with the information I had learned from my own (exceptional) Voice Teacher. It was by applying my teaching skills to teach the singing techniques/ abilities that I had acquired through my own lessons and self-study, that I discovered that I can teach voice lessons!

James R

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba

My teaching experience started in High School when I would lead groups of my peers in musical exercises. I then had many opportunities to lead individuals or groups in lessons while at school. Professors who have observed me teaching all agree that I have a knack for teaching and getting the student excited about learning the music while also holding them to a high standard of education and seriousness about the subject.

Kirsten T

Instruments: Voice Trumpet

For beginner trumpeters, I typically start with Hal Leonards Essential Elements and then slowly transition into solo repertoire that suits their skill set as they make it into the intermediate level. As advanced players, we will focus on refining skills with drill books as well as work on standards in solo repertoire. For my vocal students, we will always work on range and flexibility exercises as well as vocal repertoire from multiple genres that suit the skill level of the singer. Read More

Gabe S

Instruments: Piano Voice

Each student needs a long-term goal in mind for where they want their voice to be. I like to start out by setting a couple realistic goals for the long-term with my students, then breaking those goals down into manageable steps each associated with one or two pieces. I also want students to know that they are accomplishing their goals, so I have my students tape lessons and listen back later to hear their progress. Read More

Lauren V

Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard

Methods change depending on a student's level.  I want a beginner to feel completely comfortable being a beginner.  We start with the basics and I adjust material to personal levels of development.  If you have previous experience, we will use the first lesson to assess technique and repetorie and advance from there.  I am aware of several piano workbooks that take you from beginner to level four, these are not always the best for every student.

Teacher In Spotlight

Paul W

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I honestly have no idea what I would be doing. I don't remember being enthralled with anything other than music. And I think that if you're going to pursue music as a career in any aspect you need to ask yourself a very important question: Will I be able to live with myself if I DON'T pursue music. It can be extremely challenging to do. You may be living off ramen for a while, but if you're dedicated it is possible to make a living in music. You have to know that music is the only thing that you can do.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love playing classical music. I enjoy the challenge that comes with developing the technical skills to beautifully execute a piece of music. I love the type of emotion that is evoked from it. It can theatrical, energetic, crushing, and tragic. That isn't to say that it is better than any other type of music, but that it's different. I honestly think that broadening what I study has given me a another perspective on other styles, genres, and eras of music and a better understanding of them as well.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I've only studied guitar. I do have a strong affinity for electric bass guitar. The style of playing and the approach is drastically different than how one would tackle guitar, but it is extremely fun to play. I have played bass in bands before and it has been extremely enjoyable. I have dabbled a little bit on drum set and I've really loved that. Developing extremity independence is extremely challenging but it helps you understand rhythm in a VERY different way than how you would understand it on guitar.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I have had musical family members. My great grandmother apparently could play piano extremely well. She had the ability to hear a piece one time and play it perfectly. Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to meet her. My father used to play drum set, but by the time I was born he had given up music to support my mother, my siblings, and myself. So, I never really had anyone in my life that was a musician. My drive to pursue music was purely of my own, but thankfully my parents were very supportive of my interests.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was a defining moment for me. I had been studying electrical engineering and attempting to get into the computer graphics school at Purdue. I was also performing with some friends I had made and we started running a music venue and doing some recording. It had hit me that THIS is what I wanted to do with my life. So, I started studying theory, working on my technique, and otherwise getting prepared for my entrance exams and audition at BSU. What was tough was leaving all my friends at Purdue behind to go into something in which i was totally alone, but it was worth it because it was precisely what I wanted to pursue.

Jazz Scales: The Pentatonic Scale

...their own category. Many musicians are only aware of one pentatonic scale, but there are many pentatonic scales. There is one simple rule for the construction of a pentatonic scale: there must be five notes. I mean, it’s in the name.   The most well-known and most used pentatonic scales are the major pentatonic scale and the minor pentatonic scale. The major pentatonic scale uses the chord tones 1 2 3 5 6. The minor pentatonic scale uses the chord tones 1 b3 4 5 b7.

Don’t be afraid to audition band members if you’re looking for musicians that specialize in a certain type of style or sound.   Are they a good fit stylistically?   If you’re looking for musicians to collaborate with, attributes like taste and personality can trump a musician’s proven experience.

Throughout this warmup and any scale you play, never pick one direction more than once.   Music Notation   A lot of young, eager guitar students look forward to reading music notation as much as they look forward to a trip to the dentist, but I’m here to tell you that dotted eighth notes and ties are not out to get you.

...into the world of fingerstyle playing and singing while playing. The repetitive nature of the chord progression and accompaniment pattern lend themselves to working on these skills.   Accompaniment Techniques   The rhythmic feel uses syncopated anticipations and these techniques help create motion and interest. The pattern can be a little tricky at first, but once you get it down, it’s repeated throughout the tune providing you with ample opportunity to practice. Here’s the breakdown:   It’s a 2-bar rhythm pattern. Play the Am on beat 1. Switch to the F on the “and” of 2. Then, the C chord ... Read More

Piano Technique: The Importance of Good Playing Habits

...How Piano Technique Was Developed   Piano technique began developing long before the piano’s invention in 1700. This is because the piano is basically a new and improved version of a very similar instrument called the harpsichord, and many of the same posture and hand positions from that instrument apply to the piano. There are detailed chronicles of how the composer Bach and his sons approached playing the piano, and his ideas and methods have been widely circulated. The piano website Pianotechnique.com recently profiled the famous composer Bach’s son, Carl Philip Emmanual Bach and some of his playing techniques for ... Read More
