Victor Alexeeff, composer, world-class concert pianist. A child prodigy by the age of six, Victor Alexeeff was awarded a full scholarship to study with world-reknowned music educator Boris Berlin at Toronto's Royal Conservatory of Music.
Terry Plumeri, film score composer and conductor.
Terry Plumeri has just completed recording the 4th, 5th and 6th symphonies of Tchaikovsky as conductor of the Moscow Philharmonic for a fall 2007 release on the GMMC CD label.
Terry's innovative style of bowing jazz solos on the acoustic bass has garnered comments like "Stunning…a very high level of music" from the Washington Post. "Terry Plumeri's bowed bass work is endlessly compelling" from allaboutjazz.com. "Extraordinary bowing facility" from Jazz Improv Magazine. In speaking about his latest jazz release Blue In Green, Jazz Improv Magazine has said "The performances and solo improvisations on the parts of Terry Plumeri on bass, David Goldblatt on piano and Joe La Barbera on drums are outstanding. Blue In Green is an album bubbling with creativity, interactivity, magnificent improvisations, and the combined experience, sensitivity, and desire of three consummate musicians performing eight essential pieces from the jazz and standard repertoire. Go and listen."
While on scholarship to Manhattan School of Music in New York City, Terry studied with Robert Brennand, principal bass of the New York Philharmonic. During his period as a bassist with the National Symphony Orchestra in Washington D.C., he studied composition and conducting with the Hungarian conductor/composer Antal Dorati, himself a student of the legendary Bela Bartok.
During the past 15 years he has written the music to 55 feature films, which includes the score to the award winning crime story One False Move, which has recently been added to the "New York Times List of the 1000 Best Films Ever Made". His score for One False Move was nominated for Best Score by the IFP Spirit Awards.
Terry's lectures on music have been heard at the Smithsonian Institute, Georgetown University, Maryland Art Institute and University of Southern California as well as in his private classes in the Los Angeles area on the Vocabulary and Psychology of the Music of Bernard Herrmann in the Alfred Hitchcock thriller, Psycho.
Terry has played with such jazz greats as Cannonball Adderley, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Quincy Jones, Arthur Prysock, Frank Sinatra, Joe Williams, Les McCann, Yusef Lateef, John Abercrombie and Woody Herman. Notable performances include Carniegie Hall/New York City, Albert Hall/London, Herodicus Atticus Theater/Athens, Tchaikovsky Hall/Moscow, as well as the Newport, Monterey and Montreux jazz festivals.

GUITAR SCHOOL INFO WEBSITE
For the last several years our instructors have had many opportunities to work with special needs children, especially those with autism spectrum disorder.
Our music schools are run with the philosophy that all students are not alike and should be educated in the way that is most helpful to the student; that group or classroom instruction is not as individualized as most students need in order for them to achieve the greatest success; and finally, that all instruction should be on a one-on-one basis so as to fully focus on a students specific needs and interests.
This customized approach to teaching fits the special needs students since no one program or approach will benefit all students, special needs or not. One-on-one music lessons in a regular music school environment are an opportunity for these students to participate in a mainstream activity without the distraction of other students in the room.

“How would it feel to be able to
play an instrument right now?”
Awesome! That’s the usual answer, or fantastic!. Imagine the amazed look on your friends and family’s faces if you went to your instrument right this instant and started playing yours and everyone’s favorite songs with no effort whatsoever. That would definitely feel awesome!
Even for someone with no prior musical experience our easy to follow instruction makes learning uncomplicated and fun – pretty much effortless.
Every instructor is committed to finding the approach that works best for each person, and is patient and encouraging. Students can work at their own pace so they never have to feel stressed out.
Pick the style of music and songs you want to play. Whether it’s songs from the Rock Band and Guitar Hero video games, classical, jazz, blues – you name it, we’ll teach it.

Young Children
For parents that want their children to do more than sit around watching TV or playing video games, music lessons may be the answer.
It's not just music lessons but life skills!
Parents who enroll their kids in music lessons are encouraging their children to get involved in a productive, educational activity which is culturally enriching, and which develops the brain, intellect, motor skills, self-esteem and discipline.
.
Benefits:
Education, development of work habits and discipline. Getting the child away from the TV, video games, and hanging out at the mall.

More Experienced Music Students
Beyond the basics, many musicians feel that they aren't progressing fast enough in their knowledge and playing abilities; or that what they've learned seems scattered and unrelated.
For All Instrumentalists
Blues, rock and jazz improvisation; performance skills, and practical music theory are all taught.
Topics include improvisational techniques, scales beyond the basic major and minor, phrasing, chord progressions, progressive scale techniques, arpeggios, intervals, advanced chord construction, rhythm, scale and chord theory, definitions, transposition and musical styles.
We believe that the majority of students get more out of their music lessons and progress at a much faster rate if they can learn the styles of music that they love. Every student is taught the same fundamentals in regards to music theory and technique. The only difference is, is that one person may be taught their "do re mi's" with their favorite rock band while another may learn the same basic theory, but with traditional classical repertoire..

TEN QUESTIONS REGARDING GUITAR INSTRUCTION
1) "How much do I have to practice?"
Many are under the impression that hours upon hours per week are needed to get good at playing the guitar.
Unless you are planning on being a guitar superstar in the first few weeks, this is simply not true. If you can find
20 minutes to an hour a day, four or five days out of the week, you will noticeably progress. Generally, students
find the more they accomplish, the more they are encouraged to practice.
2) "What if I have no musical talent?"
Some worry about being "tone deaf" or that they have "no rhythm." Something we truly believe is that everyone
has some sort of innate musical talent. Initially, some may appear to have it more obviously than others, but
there are many instances when a student who seemed to be not getting it at first became the one that surpassed the rest.
3) "What if I don't have a guitar?"
Guitars can be purchased relatively inexpensively. For under $300 one can get a decent acoustic guitar, or an
electric guitar and a small amplifier. Used instruments can even be less.
4) "What if I don't know how to read music?"
We can teach you, and our instructors will make it an enjoyable learning process. However, since most of what guitar
does in popular styles is rhythm accompaniment, beginning guitar is usually is taught through a variety of other methods
that make more sense to that style. As a student progresses beyond the beginning stages they will find that reading music
is useful for more advanced musical understanding. Students are encouraged to make reading a part of their learning experience.
5) "What if I've never played a musical instrument before?"
Learning a musical instrument does not require any background. Ultimately every musician has started from zero.
All that is necessary is the desire, and a willingness to practice.
6) "What if my hands or fingers are too big or too small?"
It is extremely rare that this ever true. Once a student realizes what needs to be stretched and how to work on this
then they find that it's not as difficult as they imagined. Having a qualified instructor look at the individual is recommended.
7) "Why can't I teach myself?"
We are of the opinion that instructional materials such as videos, DVDs, internet downloads, books and CDs, regardless
of how good they are produced, are best studied with a competent teacher. It's not the student's fault! As good as these
learning aids may be, the problem is, is that you can't ask them questions. Since everyone learns differently, there may be
an issue if the method utilized by the various instructional materials is not one that works for you. This is where the experienced
private instructor who can customize their approach to the individual enters into the picture. Once the basics have been mastered,
then the various instructional materials available are much easier to deal with.
8) "How long will I have to take lessons before I can play anything?"
Although this is a tricky question to answer because every student is different, the average is between two to four weeks
before a student can start playing some simpler songs.
9) "How long to I have to keep taking lessons?"
Our goal is to make the student self-sufficient so that after they learn the basics they can teach themselves. This could happen
after just a few lessons. One doesn't necessarily need to keep taking lessons to learn enough to become a competent player.
However, once a student gets involved in the guitar they often find that they enjoy the learning process so much that they want
to keep it up and study techniques beyond the basic chordal accompaniment styles.
10) "Can you learn anything in a group class?"
Yes, group classes can be useful as an introduction to playing an instrument. The problem is that everyone learns differently.
This makes it difficult for an instructor to address each student's individual concerns as most group classes tend to be short
and have a large number of students.

In this group setting, children take critical first steps towards socialization, cooperation and group interaction skills. At the same time they are involved in a discipline that; develops the brain, intellect and motor skills; improves listening and concentration skills; and enhances math and literacy skills.
Our young students will enjoy the hands-on experiencing of music as they participate in fun musical activities, games and exercises that encourage sensory awareness and support the unique learning styles of their age group.
Through sound: hearing, vocalizing, speaking and singing
Improving language, vocal & speech development, memorization skills
Through sight: visual games, drawing and coloring, identifying music symbols
Learning spatial relationships & memorization skills
Through movement: dancing, timing and rhythm games
Improving motor skills, timing, balance, spatial concepts & coordination
Children will learn music symbol identification, rhythm, counting, and improvisation while developing basic music skills through encouraged exploration of their individual creative sides. They will learn various musical concepts on keyboards, guitars, stringed instruments and percussion as well as be exposed to other types of instruments and musical styles.
Through singing, moving, listening, and playing musical instruments, our goal is to inspire a love of music that will stay with a child for life.
Preschool music classes are 45 minutes long and meet twice a week for 8 to 12 weeks (depending on the length of the quarter)
