Ages Taught

Specialties
I studied classically in college and much of my time in private lessons with my professor was spent in correct placement of the mouth and direction of air for quality sound and a healthy voice. I plan to use many of the same exercises in private teaching. I also believe that our bodies need to be in good shape to fully see our singing ability, so I plan to encourage students to be active physically which will translate into their strength and stamina in voice.

Children's Instruments for Miniature Musicians

Children’s Instruments for Miniature Musicians

May 29, 2009   Marisa Belger

As W flings his miniature body across his miniature piano, creating an avalanche of sound with his stomach and knees and feet (note: his hands are nowhere near the keys), I wonder if he inherited his father’s musical ability or if he’ll end up like me—tone deaf and instrument-phobic, left playing the egg shaker at his in-laws’ family gatherings.

I hope for the best and so encourage his musical experimentation (until the headache creeps up and begs for a quiet, introspective child prone to reading and drawing and other silent activities) with a variety of kid-sized instruments like Melissa and Doug’s piano complete with color-coded keys and songbook. Plan Toys also nurtures novice musicians with a starter baby drum or a more advanced drum set made from natural rubber wood and non-toxic paints....
