I've received instruction in classical singing (opera). I understand basic form and technique for that style of singing. I'm well rehearsed in rock-pop guitar methods (rhythms, chord progressions, lead, strumming patterns, scales and arpeggios, etc.) Music theory, ear training, and rhythm are things I feel are important to teach no matter what instrument is being taught.

I specialize in Country/Pop/Rock styles. Performance is a key part of students musicianship. I think that it is very important for students to be able to see themselves. What you think you look like when you perform and what you actually look like can be 2 different things. I have students view their own performances and also view other artist performances and see how they could possibly incorporate tips that they see in other performances into their own shows. By giving students tips and ide…

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....
