Let’s Begin
Music Genres: Most students who seek me out are interested in Classical, Musical Theater, or Jazz music and are interested in performing in their schools, local communities or professionally in some way. I love working with beginners who are ready to try new things, work hard and build their skills!
For over ten years I have maintained a small, focused group of piano students who love fitting the piano into their daily lives.
Ages: Is your young student ready? Book a complementary consultation and I’ll be happy to give you my honest opinion. My lessons are designed to build tangible skills, but without regular practice, we can only go so far. We will have fun, but students must come prepared to learn. I teach students ages 13+ but make exceptions for younger students on a case-by-case basis.
01 — Voice Lessons
Developing singers is at the very heart of Gilead! Students recieve highly personalized training designed to give each person a deep understanding of their own voice both technically and artistically. Week by week, the singers work through their old, limiting habits and find vocal freedom. We conquer self doubt and prepare for performances with joy whether it’s a school concert, open mic night, professional audition or national tour!
02 — Audition Coaching
Need a new set of eyes on your material? I love helping performers polish their work and bring their incredible talent front and center. Singers may ask us to focus on a particular area like diction, musicality, or presentation and I do my best work helping singers find dramatic clarity in their performance.
03 — Musicianship Course
Designed with singer-songwriters in mind, a musicianship course will help anyone build their musical toolkit. Together we’ll design a bespoke training course and work through weekly meetings to make sure you have the tools you need to achieve your unique goal. This may include basics in piano, sight reading, music theory, song structure, style and more!
