Piano with Dani E.

Hi! I'm a singer/songwriter who recently relocated to Nashville from Brooklyn, NY. I just got off the road from singing backing vocals for Miley Cyrus on the Bangerz World Tour and am looking forward to picking up with my students again and hopefully working with some new ones! I've been teaching since 2006 in addition to writing and performing my original music as well as singing backing vocals for various artists such as Amos Lee, Sheryl Crow, The Roots, and more. *** Lesson Details *** I hold a B.F.A. in Vocal Performance from The New School for Jazz & Contemporary Music in NYC and teach beginning, hobbyist singers all the way through to working, professional singers. The most important thing I like to work on with voice students, is helping you to find your own distinct voice and how to use it to the best of it's abilities. That involves developing your technique, vocal health, and an overall familiarity with how your voice functions. When it comes to teaching piano, I work with beginner students and was mainly teaching children ages 5 and up back in NYC. That's not to say if you're an adult we couldn't work together! I like to work from a workbook of some kind-my students and I were using the 'Bastien Series' and 'Dozen A Day' in addition to other repertoire books. In addition to playing, some of my students liked to compose original music which I highly encourage and help foster if that's something you desire to do. I'd love to talk with you more about what you, or your child is looking to achieve through taking piano or voice lessons! *** Studio Equipment *** Nord Keyboard, Roland amp, microphone & mic stand *** Travel Equipment *** All of my studio equipment is portable. *** Specialties *** Voice, Songwriting My degree is in jazz but I also have classical training and musical theatre experience
