Welcome to my website! My classes will provide a positivie learning environment for vocal techniques, music
theory, sight-singing techniques and skill building to develop each student into a knowledgeable and informed vocal musician
and choir member. I believe that every person, no matter what their natural musical abilities may be, can learn
and develop skills to sing satisfactorily. The level at which this is achieved is up to the individual student.
Music isn't just learning notes and playing them, you learn notes to play to the music of your soul. - Katie Greenwood
I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity. It's something we are all touched
by. No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music. - Billy Joel

Elementary Choir:
Wow! What a great (and many) bunch of students! So far they're favorite is the 2 part version of "Down By
the Bay". I'm sure we shake the rafters when we sing this one! Our goal right now is learning how to sing two-part
music. So far so good - Keep up the good work!
5th & 6th General Music:
We've recently learned about the importance of singing the "Star-Spangled Banner". We've discussed the history
of the song, some history of the United States and what mannerisms to abide by when the song is played.
