My Musical Education Background
Over 30 years experience teaching piano and voice lessons.
Graduate of Westminster Choir College (Princeton, NJ)
I teach all ages and levels --- toddler through "really old..."
One of my specialties is teaching very young children preparing
them for "real" lessons; rhythm patterns, recognizing line notes
and space notes, understanding direction of notation and hearing
examples of different types of music. I play CD's of piano, opera,
symphonies, concerti, and general vocal so little ones learn to
distinguish many timbres and even recognize composers.
Adults are very welcome from rank beginner to advanced. I taught
one Japanese gentleman who had taken piano lessons from age 5
to 13, and then gone 30 years without touching piano (too much was
forced on him, so there was some resentment). He came to lessons
with renewed love of music, and recently has given his second piano
concert in Japan, having moved back there in 2005! It didn't take him
long at all to become highly advanced, and he loved being introduced
to Romantic, Impressionist and Contemporary works he'd never done.
I've been in VA only a few years after moving from NJ and will be
happy to welcome students for piano, and voice lessons.
footnote: I do have three cats, so allergic to cats folks might need
to be warned. My tuner is allergic, so he wears a mask here!!!
