Singers like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, and Frank Sinatra have left an indelible mark on American popular music through their jazz vocal stylings, fusing a conversational delivery with rhythmic and melodic improvisation. This course is tailored for each student to teach the unique characteristics of jazz singing and how to apply these characteristics to create your own sound. You will learn jazz phrasing, how to integrate good technique into jazz song styles, and how to sing with a number of time feels and grooves.

The course focuses on jazz vocal technique and delivery, including use of vocal inflections, dynamics, articulation, and interpretation, and how to improvise through rhythmic and melodic phrasing. The course then will go deeper into jazz improvisation expanding the musical vocabulary of scat studying syllabels, rhythm, and melodic ideas.

In this course we will apply these concepts to jazz tunes in various tempos and grooves, including ballads, medium swing, fast swing, and bossa nova. You'll move on to learn important considerations for effective stage presence and use of the microphone, too.

Exploring Your Singing Voice!!!

It is my belief that anyone can sing as the body is built to speak and sing. So if you or your child loves to sing, it is never too late nor too early to learn one's self-expression through singing.

I work with people of all ages from beginners, hobbyists, the curious, and to everyone in between who yearns to explore their singing voices.

Lessons are tailored for each individual depending on their level and goals for singing.

My lessons cover Vocal Function/Technique, Basic Music Theory, and learning and performing a song.

The Vocal Technique I teach is grounded in the principles of Functional Singing and Somatic Voicework TM The LoVetri Method. Vocal technique which covers Posture, Breathing, Body and Vocal Warm-ups, and Vocal Exercises prepares the body to sing freely, effortlessly, and powerfully. It facilitates awareness of mind, body, and breath connection which promotes freedom of expression and brings forth the joy of singing

Music is a beautiful thing that today can be anything from a brief escape from reality, to a passion, to a hobby to enjoy. I help people learn about all types of music, and aid them in forging their own relationship with it. Experienced in many different genres and styles, I seek to expand people's musical views and show them that regardless of who you are, where you're from and what you do, music can be whatever you want it to be for you, and it's my job to help you figure out what that is and find what your passion in music is.

As a teacher, I always try to focus on what the student is passionate about, while keeping in mind their weaknesses or aversions. When I was a student, the most profound growth I experienced was when I was fully engaged in the act of music making. I want to guide my students along a path to fall in love with music, whatever form that may come in. I know this will be much more valuable than any technique or song I could ever teach them. While I know this is the goal, I am also aware that this won’t happen with every student. Often this process happens further down the line. In those cases I just want them to get the most they can out of music, and enjoy the process of growing as a musician and a person.

It is very important to me to teach music to a diverse community of students. This is how I grew up learning music, and it truly is a way of bringing communities together. It has also been my privilege as a teacher to serve many underprivileged communities (as a part of Oakland Summer music, and Oakland Public Conservatory), as I believe everyone deserves access to quality music education.

In my private or group lessons, I like to first gauge the students’ listening habits and any music they are listening to. In my experience with younger students, many of them have yet to start listening to music on their own. I try to provide them a space to just listen to music. This way we can work on their technique through music they already enjoy. I will often have them learn songs by ear while also working on some fundamentals such as scales or tonging. We would also work on whatever weaknesses the student may have in their own public music programs or in their other music making. Often that is reading, ear training, or general lack of knowledge. I am always happy to work on these things in a patient but challenging manner. While improvement is the goal, I know first hand that failure is an important and essential part of the learning process.
