About Emily

General:

Teaching is not just something I do to pay the bills: it is truly a passion of mine. Helping young musicians find what excites them most about music is something that brings me great joy, and I feel privileged to be able to share my love of music with my students.

Experience:

I have extensive experience teaching voice, composition, and music theory in both private and classroom settings. I have taught at after-school programs, tutored classmates, and have taught private students. I have also taught English music theory to ESL students (adult).

Education:

I graduated from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Music in classical voice and composition, as well as from the Manhattan School of Music with a Master's degree in composition, studying with Reiko Füting. You can find my full bio on MSM's website.

Career:

I am a published composer who has been commissioned by numerous ensembles. You can find my music by searching my name on Cypress Choral Music or Silent Dawn Publishing. While choral/vocal music is a focus of mine, I compose music for all instrumentations and would be happy to focus on what interests my student(s)!

I believe in creating well-rounded musicians who have the skills to pursue any musical endeavour, be it performance, composition, conducting... the sky is the limit!

The predominant musical curriculum assumes that every young musician will want to be a performer, and while that is a wonderful and exciting path, it is not the only one.

My approach:

For voice students (beginner-intermediate)

-Sight-reading and aural skills heavily emphasized for a strong foundation
-Age and level-appropriate repertoire selection (with the student's input)
-Building confidence onstage and healthy vocal habits

For theory/composition students (beginner-pre college)

-Versatile curriculum with emphasis on areas of interest for the student, or on material for an upcoming exam.
-Weekly assignments, adapted to the level, age, and capacity of the student given their schedule.
-Emphasis on often-overlooked areas of study: score-reading, conducting, instrumentation/orchestration (for more advanced students), and knowledge of repertoire from all eras, including contemporary/living composers.
