*** Lesson Details ***
Lessons are tailored to the individual student's initial abilities. In all genres of music it is important to breathe well, have breath support, communicate the emotion and character of the song, and eliminate vocal bad habits. These issues are different for everyone.
I teach a classical Italian technique of breath support and beautiful tone, and these techniques can be applied to all musical styles.
The student will be assigned and choose songs to learn and work on as we incorporate the techniques into the songs and vocal exercises.
Piano lessons and Italian lessons are also available from ages 5 and up.
*** Studio Equipment ***
CD player, 7' Boston grand piano, digital recorder
*** Travel Equipment ***
Yamaha keyboard.

Voice, classical, pop, Broadway, opera, Italian, piano, music theory,
audition preparation. I specialize in opera but sing many styles, including pop, classical, and musical theatre; I teach all styles in piano.

About Isaac R.

I can teach theory any level you need me to from Classical to Jazz.
About Isaac
I started playing piano when I was four and was trained classically. I went to Berklee College of Music to try out different styles of playing. I learned a lot about blues and jazz and I played in an indie-folk-rock band on the side! I've been teaching piano lessons since high school, and after Graduating from Berklee College of Music, I decided to teach in Los Angeles. I also compose on the side!
*** Lesson Details ***
I like my lessons to be collaborative and fun. My students have input on what they would like to play, and I try to find the best practice routine that works for them. But I also make sure to include technique and theory in any way I can, to get my students off to a good start.
Take lessons with me if you would like to learn fast by being inspired!

About Josh L.
Close
I studied music theory in college. I tutored many students while taking classes myself. I teach my students not only to solve theory problems but to understand the greater concepts of music theory.
About Josh
I am a professional singer, pianist, songwriter, and recording artist. I graduated from Indiana Wesleyan University with a Bachelors of Music, specifically voice.
Voice students can expect to improve week to week in their vocal technique. Every voice has a unique timbre; I teach students to release built up tension and apply foundational techniques in order to unlock their own individual sound. I can help any student to sing with freedom, confidence, and expression.
I teach piano students of all different ages and experience levels. I studied classical piano for 16 years, and contemporary keyboard for 7 of those. I can teach students to read music and pursue classical excellence, to learn how to play contemporary music using chord sheets, or both depending on the goals and preference of the student.

rtist I frequently take trips to Nashville for co-writing, recording, and meeting with record labels. I have written with well-known writers like Mia Fieldes from Hillsong, Tony Wood from Provident Label Group, Stu G from Delirious?, and Jon Steingard from Hawk Nelson. I love to mentor students who want to become effective, dynamic songwriters.
My personal passion is contemporary music but I firmly believe that great technique is essential to any and every style. I look forward to meeting you and helping you to become a better musician!

About Micah W.
Close
I am experienced as a performer and composer as well as music theory teacher, and I use these other parts of my musical identity to relate what I teach to real, compelling musical examples. I have a wide variety of musical interests, including classical, choral, folk and pop music, and like analyzing what is similar—and different—about these different genres. I am excited to learn what kind of music you are interested in and help you learn what makes it tick!
About Micah
Hi! I'm Micah, and I'm passionate about making, writing, analyzing, and teaching music. I graduated with high honors in music from Haverford College, where I studied music theory, violin performance, choral singing, and composition. I completed a Master's degree at Harvard University in music; I studied the place of music in history and culture, and continued to study music theory and analysis.
What I especially love, however, is making connections with the music you or I enjoy. When I teach music theory, I always try to bring the focus back to that spark that makes the music so exciting in the first place. I also study folk music, and teach fiddle – I love that music like this is able to connect with so many people in ways that extend beyond the concert hall, and most of all let everyone have fun!
