Fauré wrote this cycle at the height of his powers. The composer's passion for the dedicatee of the cycle, Emma Bardac, his mistress and the work's first private interpreter, played a large part in the joyful virility and optimism of the music. Fauré set nine of the twenty-one poems; on the whole he avoided poems in the cycle that expressed doubt or anguish. He paid no attention whatever to the poet's ordering apart from ending his cycle with Verlaine's final poem. Fauré selected Nos, iv, v, vi, viii, xv, xvii, xix, xx and xxi – or, in the order of the composer's Op 61, viii, iv, v, xx, xv, v, xix, xvii, xxi. The first eight songs were composed in 1892 and 1893; the last was not ready until February 1894.
There are five main themes in the cycle noted by both Jankélévitch and Orledge: the 'Carlovingien' theme A (first heard in song 1, bars 15 to 16, and 79 to 80); the 'Lydia' theme B (named after the melody of the song Lydia, heard most plainly in song 3, bars 9 to 12); the 'Que je vous aime' theme C (first heard attached to those very words in song 5, bars 65 to 69); the pair of jauntily dotted figurations at the Allegro moderato of song 6 (bars 8 to 9) that introduce the singing quails, theme D; the 'Sunrise' theme E (first heard in song 6 bars 72 to 73), denoting the power of nature. The deployment of these motifs in different songs is the musical glue which gives this work its astonishing unity, as well as an obsessive single-mindedness.
The complexity of La bonne chanson won Fauré few friends in the short term; his old teacher Saint-Saëns was horrified by its wilful complexity. The main criticism concerned the incessant modulations; it had always been a tendency of Fauré to revel in his mastery of harmony but, as Jean-Michel Nectoux observes: 'Harmonic instability in La bonne chanson reaches a pitch rarely equaled in Fauré's output. Tonality is undermined by tortuous chromaticism so that at times … a sense of key is almost obliterated.' Marcel Proust wrote: 'The young musicians are almost unanimous in disliking La bonne chanson. It appears that it is needlessly complex … but I don't care, I adore it.'
Proust's view was to prevail with Fauré enthusiasts, but as Robert Orledge remarks, for many members of the public Fauré's 'bonne' chansons were his old chansons. Indeed, the work remains inaccessible to many an admirer of the earlier Fauré; it is often the performers, rather than the audiences, who emerge from the concert hall singing the cycle's praises. Fauré is usually counted rather a self-effacing fellow; when he flexes his musical muscles, as in this cycle, many a listener is disconcerted by the resulting creative exuberance. (The cycle was arranged for string quintet and piano accompaniment for a performance in London in 1898, a version that Fauré disliked.)
With La bonne chanson Fauré's song-writing reached the apogee of its complexity. Never again would the composer's mélodies challenge the listener's ear in quite this way, and there is nothing like this cyclical cross-referencing in the composer's later song cycles.

Eco Friendly Bag with Industrial Felt and Recycled Leather
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Industrial wool felt is a sustainable and biodegradable material that works perfectly as a sturdy material for this bag. Recycled leather accents add attractive contrast and durability. This project comes to us from Jenya of MyEvaForeva.
Put the fabric you are going to use as your lining on the floor (or table) and put the felt on top. Cut the lining about 1 inch bigger than the felt.
Then cut out all the pockets you will need. I thought about this part long and hard before hand – what can be better than a bag with pockets just for your things to hold. I made one huge pocket on one side for my mail and magazines and another little one on top of the big one.
For the second side I cut out one long pocket and divided it into three – for my cell phone, my eyeglasses, and my other little stuff.
I also cut it out to be slightly wider than the lining itself so that I can make tiny pleats on its bottom to give my pockets some 3D form.
After you sew your pockets to your lining, fold it making sure the pockets are on the inside. Sew the sides of your lining.
Then take the bottom corner and fold it. Sew through the corner depending on how wide you want your bottom to be.
Then cut that corner out.
Do the same on the other side and turn the lining inside out to look how it turned out. Great! Now turn it back in because this is how it's going to go in the bag. You are done with the lining part for now.
Take your felt and fold it together. Sew the sides by hand (or using your sewing machine).
I had to use a big needle and pliers. While you are at it, turn on your hot wax bath to warm it up – believe me, your fingers are going to need it. Ouch!!!
Then do the same thing on the bottom corners as you did with the lining, only now you fold the corner, take a metal ruler and press on the corner hard and cut it with box cutter. Then secure the opening by sewing it together.
Now is the time for handles. Cut out two strips of leather (depending on how long you want your handles to be) and cut out the lining slightly longer than your leather strips and about 2.5 times wider.
Fold the fabric and attach the leather strip to it. I used sewing machine for this. On the ends, fold the remaining end of the lining under the leather strips.
Attach your strips to the bag. I used my poor sewing machine for this too, although I did this by turning the dial manually to prevent the needle from breaking. I did a big Z on each part.
Now you are ready to insert your lining into your bag. Fold the top edges inside toward the felt part and sew the ling to the felt along the top with your machine. By then it won't mind.
Guess what? You are done.

For Yankee fans, and the price, they're great! They didn't look like more than what was to be expected, so great product.
The second day the clasp broke and seems to be cheaply made
this is an inexpensive little gift for a child. I wouldn't give it to anyone with serious intentions. Cute as a stocking stuffer
Everythinga bout this package deal worked out great as I said; except the length of the necklace. It was a little short, so we simply took the charm off and put it on a longer one. Other than that, worked out great!

The foremost position in an army or fleet advancing into battle; the foremost or leading position in a trend or movement; those occupying a foremost position.
The vanguard of the group led their whole military to victory.

verb; to ruin an eagerly anticipated product by prematurely pushing it to market in spite of known flaws and overall incompleteness, virtually assuring disaster and disappointment.
I agree that I want the game out soon, but that is secondary to having a quality product. Let's not have them 'Vanguard' this.

We are no big fans of the changeover from the 3-series to the 4-series moniker, but at least BMW is making the transition as easy as possible. The proven concept remains unchanged, and the styling is so evolutionary that a casual observer might find it difficult to tell the difference.

A company named Ube (pronounced "yoo-bee") is inviting homeowners to get in on the ground floor of a new smart dimmer. The company just launched its Smart Dimmer product via the crowdfunding site Indiegogo.
The Smart Dimmer can replace pretty much any light switch or dimmer. Once installed, it hooks to your home's WiFi and allows users control via Ube's smartphone app. That means you can dim the lighting or flip lights on and off from anywhere with a web connection, both in and outside of the home.
The Ube Smart Dimmer uses standard IP protocol to communicate with the cloud and with the Ube smartphone control app.
Some of the Smart Dimmer features include lighting scenes, an away mode, and the option to work with any 120-volt dimmable bulb including incandescent, fluorescent and LED. Each dimmer can also supply energy reports through the app, so users can keep tabs on their energy bills.
Ube also plans to publish an open API, so that developers can create their own SW apps to control Ube Smart Dimmers.
Ube has set a pre-order price on its Smart Dimmer of $49 and $69, depending on the model. There are also package prices, which include anywhere from three to 20 dimmers. The app, however, will be a free download. Currently, the Indiegogo campaign has 45 days to reach its $700,000 goal. Users that pre-order the Smart Dimmer can expect the company to deliver the product starting in June 2013.

Installing web access throughout the house can be difficult. Of course, it doesn't have to be. A powerline solution can add a high-speed network anywhere there's an existing outlet. Now, that option is also affordable, thanks to Newegg.
The online retailer is currently selling the ZyXEL PLA407 HomePlug AV Powerline Wall Mount Ethernet Adapter Kit through eBay for just $59.99. This price is for a 2-pack of adapters and also includes free shipping. If you don't feel like registering for an eBay account, Buy.com also has the product at the same price—and it's a good one.
The PLA407 makes it insanely easy to expand your home network, all without fishing wire. Just plug one unit into your existing router and the other into any wall outlet. That's it! ZyXEL says that this solution can support up to 64 devices with up to 200Mbps data transfer rates. That's good enough for web surfing, HD video streaming, and much more. It also has a built-in noise filter, so you don't have to worry about surrounding equipment.
Although Newegg is offering this item through eBay, it's not an auction. You can buy the item instantly at this reduced price. Because this price is so low, the retailer is limiting the purchase to five per customer.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

Stay at one of our handpicked accommodations in Portugal and enjoy personalized VIP service, complimentary upgrades, and the best rates at the very best hotels.
Look at a map of Europe. Portugal appears just a little bit clingy, no? Like it's afraid of floating off into the Atlantic Ocean? There a lesson here: don't judge a country by its political geography.
In actuality, Portugal is among Europe's most convivial countries, home to an unmistakable joie de vivre (translated into Portuguese, of course). The country's capital, Lisbon, is quintessentially European, all lazy boulevards and winding cobblestone streets, and home to most of Portugal's four-plus star accommodations. The city is incredibly rich in architecture, with all of Europe's grand epochs represented.
Algarve, Portugal's southernmost mainland region, attracts droves of northern Europeans with its tropical climate, beautiful beaches, and championship golf courses.
Kiwi Collection has

Exclusive Free Perks – We offer free benefits at many of our hotels, including room upgrades, fine dining, spa treatments, and more.

THE WAR IN SPAIN A WEEKLY SUMMARY EDITED BY CHARLES DUFF UNITED EDITORIAL LTD. No. 6 LONDON, 26th FEBRUARY, 1938 PRICE 1d. THE STRENGTH OF GOVERNMENT SPAIN EVEN for those who know their Spain very well, it has often been difficult since the beginning of the military rebellion to estimate the strength of the two sides in the struggle. Indeed, there was only one factor which seemed certain— the psychological. When the generals put their plan into action in July, 1936, it looked as if there was to be a pronunciamiento —and a successful one —of the old sort. They had on their side about 80 per cent. of the rank and file of the army and over 90 per cent. of its officers. They had the highly-trained Foreign Legion (which contained some of the finest rascals and cut-throats in Europe) and they had the Moorish Regulars: excellent shock-troops, especially for use against a civilian population. And then, as we know now, they had made arrangements beforehand with Germany and Italy for aeroplanes to cover the landing of the shock-troops: all of which worked according to plan. How could any Government face such odds ? It was just as if nearly the whole of the British Army was turned against the Government and civil population of England, on the commands of a group of mutinous generals who had taken a solemn oath of allegiance to the King. In Spain there was that tremendous background of history to inspire the people, who immediately recognised in the rebellion an attempt of reactionary absolutists to gain control of the country in the interests of fast disappearing feudal privileges. The Popular Front Government knew this, and acted on it by issuing such arms and ammunition as it still held to the people —to peasants, labourers, workers, shopkeepers, barbers, doctors, writers, bootblacks or sculptors. A psychological miracle occurred. Galvanised into action, those inspired people, thousands of whom had never touched or even seen an army rifle in their lives, opposed a fully organised and trained modern army that had a plan. Although the rebel army advanced quickly over many areas, in certain vital places it was held and in others the rebellion was completely crushed, often with enormous sacrifices of life by what were hastily improvised groups of untrained men, some of them old, and occasionally aided by women. A morale had been created. From that moment the general success of the rebellion was in doubt. With the passage of time and the transformation of those early militia units into a good army, the failure of the rebels became certain. Franco could not take his main objective, Madrid. The collapse of his cowardly conspiracy seemed imminent. He had to send abroad for more armies —armies of infantry, artillery, etc.: Italians, Germans, Moors, Berbers, Ifnis —anybody willing to fight against Spaniards. He obtained masses of material, and thousands of foreign soldiers. Yet, to-day, he is further from victory than ever and, unless he can obtain about a quarter-of-a-million more foreigners to fight his battles, his defeat by the Government is merely a matter of time. He has been beaten by the morale and the spirit of the people. His boast to a British journalist: "I shall win because I have better arms" sounds hollow beside the claim of a people who know that they are fighting for liberty and against brutal oppression and who, therefore, continue to fight. Elsewhere in this issue we give the startling figures of last year's aerial fighting. They show at least this: that if the Government's Air Force is not bigger than the rebels', it is clearly a better fighting force. The rebels' aerial success has been in the bombing of open towns and, it is an acknowledged fact of aerial warfare that attacking aircraft can always be certain of unloading bombs somewhere ! It is doubtful if any anti-aircraft measures will keep away entirely the aeroplanes which will attack London in the next war, any more than they did in the last. But defenders can make attacks costly. And, as we show elsewhere, that is what the loyalists have done to the rebels. If we leave aside the Italian "victories" at Malaga and in the north last year, and look at the one continuous battle-front in Spain, we find that the Government won victories at Guadalajara, Penarroya, near Cordova, Brunete, Belchite and Teruel; and many minor events elsewhere. The defensive value of the loyalist forces is now magnificent. Their attacking value is fast approaching that of any regular army in the world, and it is better than most. The problem of transport has been virtually solved, and difficult lines of communications immeasurably improved. This, with the new army of three-quarters of a million men, renders a rebel victory a military impossibility. The achievements of the loyalist Navy are little appreciated in England, and many people believe that it is playing a part inferior to that of the rebel fleet. The reason is that the loyalist Navy has concentrated on a purely defensive policy —that of protecting ports and the merchant ships which go to and from Government Spain. Franco's Navy, in its attempts to effect a blockade, has concentrated on piracy. Clearly, there is nothing spectacular about the safe escort of shipping, whereas if a rebel pirate sinks a merchant vessel the information at once reaches the newspaper headlines. All Franco is doing is to shoot and run; the Government Navy is intent on protection. It is the policy of Franco to obtain belligerent rights at almost any cost, for that would give him the right of searching and taking ships which bring food and munitions to Government ports. It would also completely nullify the Nyon system of control. The chief point to be considered is this: the Government Navy can prevent and is preventing a blockade of loyalist Spain. To make any sort of political comparison between the rebel and Government zones is merely to compare the functioning of a military dictatorship with the free functioning of a democratic system. The one represents oppression by force; the other an administration based upon the approval of the people. The days are past when groups or parties in Government Spain were at loggerheads, and in a state of confusion caused by the surprise attack of the rebels. Senor Martinez Barrios, Chairman of the Cortes (corresponding to our Speaker of the House of Commons), announced on February 11th that the political situation in loyalist Spain is one of absolute stability. Parties representing the Popular Front work in complete harmony with the Ministry. All problems of political ideologies have been shelved, and there is only one goal: to win the war. Apart from purely military censorship the press is free. There is no disorder anywhere. Nor is there any widespread anti-religious feeling (though there is a definite anti-clerical bias). Indeed, priests broadcast regularly from Barcelona, masses may be held in private, and there is a move to re-establish open worship in Catalonia. To sum up, Government Spain is well organised, has an army that is getting bigger and better everyday, and the morale of the population is superb. In that lies its strength. If the foreigners on Franco's side were removed, he would not last a month. Only one danger remains: that Hitler and Mussolini should decide to send more troops to the rebels. We advise our readers to contemplate the speech made by Mr. Anthony Eden in the House of Commons on 21st of this month. He did not trust Dictators. Nor does Spain.

Let's talk about honeycomb - by Savannah Bee Company
Honeycombs are perfection
Each honeycomb is unique and a work of art. While every comb is made of hexagonal beeswax cells filled with honey, they can vary wildly in appearance.
Honeybees make the honeycomb different thicknesses. Sometimes all the cells are capped and sometimes they are not. Sometimes the natural edges of the comb are not perfectly square.
Sometimes we can cut a full square that fills the box and sometimes a smaller piece of honeycomb can weigh as much as a thinner, full-size piece.
Then honeycomb can weigh anywhere from the minimum 11oz stated on the package up to 16oz.
Bees will not mix honey varieties in the same cell, so when they are switching over to new nectar the color of the honey can vary from golden in the tops cells to reddish in the bottom cells.
What is consistent is the quality of our honeycombs. Every part of the cutting and packaging process is done by hand. If it doesn't meet our standards, then we don't box it.

We loved her when her debut single 'New In Town' came out, when she topped the BBC Sound of 2009 poll AND received a Critics' Choice nomination at the BRIT Awards – and now Little Boots is back! Exciting for us, the singer is premiering her brand-new music video right here, right now, on Grazia Daily. What a treat!
Her newest single 'Headphones' brings back that signature '80s-inspired electro-pop sound and catchy lyrics that we first fell in love with (trust us, you'll be singing 'I'll wear my headphones to the disco' for Friday nights to come). As for the video, it sees her clad in new collection pieces from House of Holland and Felder Felder, plus she's accessorising her fab ensembles with silver platform Terry de Havilland shoes. Ah-mazing.
Oh, and check out the 28-year-old's shorter blonde bob. How chic! The video also sees La Boots dancing about during an underground party, which reminds us of those heady days when we'd throw some shapes to her catchy tunes all those years ago.
So what's the inspiration behind the video? 'It was partly from the wim wenders film 'Paris Texas' and the idea of a peep show revolving around headphones and listening to music as opposed to talking,' she exclusive told us. 'The idea is that everyday characters enter a booth and on listening to the song their extrovert selves appear in the reflection, so the song is a way of releasing their inner selves and setting the crazier side of them free. We wanted to create an energetic party atmosphere to fit the song whilst avoiding the clichés of a lot of current club themed videos.'
Well, we say job well done. Take a look for yourselves by clicking play below...
'Headphones' is out now.

I studied piano in Germany with Lola Poirier (a student of the famous Alfred Cortot) for 11 years, then with Phillip Evans in New York (professor at the Manhattan School of Music) and finally with world-renowned concert pianist Eugene Liszt at Carnegie-Mellon University, where I received my Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance with a Minor in Child Pedagogy.
For the past twenty eight years I have been teaching students of all levels and ages, incorporating some of my former teachers' methods with my own teaching style. I am passionate about awakening a hunger in each of my students for bringing and keeping music in their lives forever. I don't look at my students as children who play an instrument, but as young artists on the road to self-discovery and musical fulfillment!
Although many of my students have used their proficiency in piano for college admission and scholarship opportunities, my goal remains to bring their piano playing ability to such an advanced level, that it will become a part of their lives forever.
Along the way I have created strong bonds of friendship with many of my former students, to the point that I feel like they have become a part of my extended family. I am most rewarded when a former student drops by for a visit after completing college to let me know how they are still being positively affected by their continued use of the gift of playing the piano.
*** Lesson Details ***
My objective in the first few months of working with a new student is to teach them all the basics-especially how to read music-so they will be able to get to play the pieces they love as soon as possible. My emphasis is on classical music, but I also teach Popular Music and Broadway Music or anything else the student might prefer.
I use the Michael Aaron Beginner's book together with Note Reviews (my own method of teaching note reading the fast and easy way).
I am very friendly and outgoing- being overly strict doesn't accomplish anything.... but I am progress oriented. My students all practice because they want to move forward and improve and because they enjoy coming to class and performing in my Recitals....which are a wonderful opportunity for them to showcase their talent and accomplishments.
After 3 months many students are just about ready to start on their first real classical piece (such as "Fur Elise' by Beethoven) and by 6 months most are playing original classical pieces by Mozart, Bach and Haydn and Beethoven.
In addition, many of my students enjoy learning contemporary and musical theater pieces, and some even come for audition coaching . I accompany them and help prepare them for their music theater auditions: I teach them how to incorporate their piano training to aid them with their vocal exercises and....having an extended personal background in musical theater myself...give them feedback and insight into the audition process.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Private music studio in the back of house with two grand pianos
*** Specialties ***
My biggest strengths as a teacher are relatability and communication: I am very good at figuring out each of my student's strengths and weaknesses and working with them to bring out their best! Making the lessons fun remains a priority.... as does making sure they learn how to read notes and get exposed to as many pieces as possible so they have a well rounded repertoire.
I love teaching music, it is my greatest passion in life and my students respond in kind by learning quickly and advancing rapidly while enjoying themselves immensely. As is evident by the fact that most of them stay with me for many years most until College some even returning after College to enhance their skills and enrich their repertoire and, because they miss their weekly classes. Some of my former students have even gone on to become Piano teachers themselves!�
I Love music, and I love people. I feel that music is and has historically been a way of interpreting and expressing all the diversity in life and our experiences and that our instruments are our tool of expressing, whether it be the drum, guitar, piano, voice, sitar, etc. My inevitable goal here is to help you(student) obtain the technical, theoretical understanding to help you express your own message and story musically and or achieve any musical standard that one connects too and wishes too achieve.
Teaching Philosophy -
My teaching philosophy is really built on well rounded communication and multiple facets of explanation and examples so that a student can truly understand and learn a topic, surrounded in a very humorous, light and supportive environment.
I feel that along with being provided good information a student learns better and feels more motivated to learn when there is a balance of positive support and confidence building accompanied by constructive criticism and examples/information that can help a student assess what ever walls they may be meeting in their musical growth.
I understand that all students/artists have different goals they wish to achieve. So it is very important to me to accommodate each individuals needs and wants and help them grow in the fields they wish too; However, In that I have played music for a long time I understand there are certain things that a student may not have been exposed to yet, it is also important to me to also supply a well rounded education environment along with the fields in which the student wants to focus specifically on.
I truly believe music has an amazing influence on the world and has the ability to change peoples way of thinking. Therefore, I try and keep an open awareness to all music so I can understand all the different musical languages utilized to communicate to people, and don't believe I will ever know them all. I hold it to attention to influence my students somewhat similarly so that they can shape the landscape of how we communicate musically in the future.
I also try and be very patient with my students, empathizing, knowing that when I feel rushed it makes it more difficult to comprehend, remember and allocate a topic or musical piece. I love watching the gears run in my students head so I try and provide information that pushes a student but is within their musical computation abilities.
HUMOR is very important. I like to break people out of their shell by telling a joke and hopefully getting one back so they feel more comfortable and free. One of a musicians worst enemies are nerves I feel that keeping things light-hearted and maybe even a little small talk can be very helpful to a students development and growth in a topic. After all Music is meant to be fun and we should enjoy every moment of it, in fact we should enjoy every moment in life period.
I understand music requires focus and discipline and I have certain expectation of a student to understand that and practice. You can't buy chops you can't buy music theory etc. you can get help but eventually your the one who must understand it and play it.
I am here to help you. Based on what I know and what I have extensively studied I will do all that I can to help you achieve your musical goals. I am here to answer your questions and help you grow. I love teaching because I love sharing knowledge as long as your seek it, it is here for you. Otherwise, I'd still love to hear some jokes.
In short I love teaching and I love seeing my students accomplish things and get what they want. I am here to help that happen and here to help you elevate your skills and perspectives on music.
Education -
I was born touring with the grateful dead and my whole life has been saturated in music. I received my first guitar when I was 11 and it has been my life since. Soloing within a week I started gigging soon after being acclaimed by some as a child prodigy and now have been doing so ever since.
-After studying extensively on my own (self taught) for 2 years or so, after which I received a full scholarship to a performing arts private school in Santa Monica called Garden of Angels where I studied guitar with Bruce Buckingham (Professor at Musicians Institute and nationally acclaimed guitar player) along with many others. While attending this school I also studied in music ensembles, and musical appreciation along with dance, acting, art/painting etc. and various other art forms.
I consider it supremely important to be well rounded and I have a history of achieving in diverse musical environments. I can't wait to meet you all and begin to learn together and help you achieve your musical aspirations.
Much Love,
Azuri Zen M.
*** Lesson Details ***
I'm very disciplined but am also very light hearted. It's important for me to assess things seriously so that one can understand a topic or piece of information; yet, it also important to me for a student to feel comfortable and relaxed when learning and performing so I try and joke and keep things positive.
I generate my lessons based on the individuals needs and therefore draw from various curriculum sources and various other sources and examples such as : MI curriculum for ear training, theory, single string technique, reading, rhythm guitar as well as the real book other artist books(Eric Clapton, etc.) the guitar players hand book, Bach pieces and self developed curriculum relative to the topic at hand and students personally goals amongst many others.
-Beginning students within three months of consistent lessons should have the ability to solo and playing chords to songs that they are interested in and songs provided in the lesson along with a basic understanding of the major scale and its relationship to all of the diatonic music.
-intermediate students should have an elevated understanding of scale and chord patters along with the theory that explains modal relationships and use of these concepts.
-Advanced students should learn all of diatonic scale shapes and modes assuming they don't already know them in which case their specifically situation will be assessed
-Professional students I expect to have specific questions therefore where they grow should be largely subjective.
Overall, in a short amount of time on a scale of 1 - 10 I expect to in three months at-least elevate a students musical abilities one full point if not more.

*** Specialties ***
As a Musician I try and play as many styles and be proficient in as many as possible and therefore can play most. However, in the fields of blues, jazz, funk, flamenco and Latin I excel.
I've been a songwriter since I was a teenager. I have been teaching music for almost as long. As a teacher, my joy comes from seeing a student realize they have grown, or discover something they now can do that they could not do before, and the confidence gained through their efforts with my guidance. I carry around the Beatles Pocket Reference Guide at all times and preach the gospel of their songwriting legacy to my students when necessary and whenever possible!! I equally love the mystery of the musical ear, and music theory, and how it all works together...I love purple. For all those who know me, I always match in whatever color spectrum I decide for that day, and I always have been that way. I believe in Angels on Earth, I searched for the Lochness Monster (No luck!!) I love animals. I have 2 rescue dogs, and 3 rescue cats, 1 more comes to have dinner and hang out. I named my son after the musical "Oliver" and the name suits him! I like that Oliver means " peace offering" I grew up in the Hollywood Hills, and love the history of Hollywoodland, I also love music and TV history. My uncle Sherwood co wrote 2 of the most iconic TV themes of all time in GIlligan's Island theme and the Brady Bunch. My mom, (Judithe) and I wrote songs together for 25 years. I named my first publishing company after my dog, Atso and he was the president and his legacy lives on in his name.

*** Lesson Details ***
To me every student is unique and special, therefore I design the lesson around what they need and or want to learn. With the younger students, I strongly suggest we work out of a book as well as me giving them handouts to work on too. There are many and various books by Faber and Faber I love to use. Hal Leonard and Alfred Publishing have some great books depending on the students needs. With kids, it's important to keep it fun and interesting, and get them on a practice schedule. I believe one must have much patience with the younger students and the level of communication must be high, keeping them engaged and focused. With teens and adults, it depends on where they are at, and I always ask what they want to concentrate on. A well rounded piano lesson would work on reading, technique, theory, songs. Again, depending on the type of student, the lesson would incorporate more /and or less of these components.
I've been coined the "Chord Queen" by many students because of my fascination with how theory plays a subconscious role in songwriters who write by ear and if I'm teaching songwriting, we are looking at how the song is structured, the lyrics,the music, and of course the harmony and arrangement and I'm here to guide the student to be able to finish the song, and them be happy when it comes to fruition.
The subjects I've taught:
Ear Training
Songwriting/ Artist Development
Music History
Transcribing/Chord Charts/Lead Sheets
Music Publishing/Copyright

I believe that everyone can sing, it is just a matter of learning how to use your unique instrument. From a very young age I was sharing my love of the arts with others as a performer. I grew up with an immense appreciation for all forms of art and found music to be the ideal way to express myself. My extensive education and performance experience has allowed me to cultivate my skills and knowledge so that I can best support each student on their own unique journey of cultivating their authentic singing voice. As a teacher I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to support students both in my studio and through online lessons, providing the positive and supportive guidance and experiences they need in order to cultivate their own musical gifts.
*** Lesson Details ***
My intention for each student is to support him or her, to the best of my ability, in finding and cultivating their voice, as well as their musical and performance abilities. As a teacher, I keep a healthy balance between professionalism and making learning fun, inspiring and experiential. I design a specific curriculum for each student based on their specific goals and intentions regarding their voice so that each lesson focuses on them and their unique needs. It is extremely important to me that students of all ages have a positive experience of music in their lives and I provide fun and encouraging performance opportunities for those students who wish to participate. I have extensive experience working with individuals who may have fear or anxiety about singing, speaking or expressing themselves to others. I am able to assist these students as they move past their fear and hesitation and truly claim their voice. They learn to cultivate and appreciate their own ability to express themselves in the world with confidence and ease. My goal is to recognize and support each student's potential, helping to give them confidence, direction and motivation on their unique musical journey.

Hello! My name is Lucas and I am a very smart guy who is also nice. I have years of experience teaching and have an enthusiastic passion for it.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I would provide my own instruments, instrument stands, music stands, music paper and writing materials.
I would expect/prefer students to provide their own instruments and musical listening equipment (CD player, iPod, etc)
*** Specialties ***
I can teach a wide range of styles including but not limited to rock, jazz, blues, funk, classical, country, and different 'world' music styles. Some examples are Latin/salsa and African guitar and percussion. I also specialize in teaching musical improvisation, songwriting, composition, and production.
I use student-specific musical instruction texts and programs to cater to each individual students needs. I have experience teaching improvisation using creative methods that involve group participation and improvisation, both with voice and instruments.
I have been happily playing music for over half of my life and it has always been the light in my day. Now it is my hope to shed that same light onto you or your child. I am a very friendly and fun teacher with a great deal of professionalism and patience, even more importantly I love teaching and music with a passion.
I have been playing an instrument since the 4th grade (cello) and, as I learned how music works, was slowly able to pick-up a greater variety instruments with an increasing degree of ease. In high school, I decided to pick-up the guitar just to "have fun and rock out". I joined a band, played in the high school orchestra, joined the high school jazz band and began to practice songwriting and cover songs. Still, it was not until after I took my first class on music theory that I knew how much I not only loved the thrill of playing music but the discovery of how it worked. With this experience I can show you or your child why learning an instrument can be not only an exciting experience but an interesting and enthralling one as well.
I have been teaching music for over 5 years and have had experience with children as young as 5 to adults in their late 80's. I am a very attentive teacher who can not only help get you moving in the right direction but keep you on that path until your are a self-sufficient musician. A status that allows you to learn whatever you want on your instrument by yourself, whether it be for business, pleasure or for mere self-improvement.
I have had the chance to study with graduates of the Musician's Institute (MI), the California Institute of the Arts (CAL Arts) and Berklee College of Music. This has given me an inside look into how and what each institute teaches, as well as a first hand look at the techniques and ideas that the great players from these remarkable schools have come to produce.
My formal music education consists of 2 years at Pasadena City College where I obtained my general Associates Degree (much of the studies included music) and a semester at California State University Long Beach as a Jazz Guitar Performance Major. Additionally I have taken a great deal of classes in California State University Long Beach's teaching credential program, where I learned strategies and theories of how and what to teach my students - making me that much more effective at my craft. At Pasadena City College I studied with jazz/classical guitarist, Ron Berman, who has played with such jazz greats as Herb Ellis and Jimmy Wyble. At Cal State Long Beach I studied with jazz guitarist Ron Eschete, a former teacher at MI who has toured with the likes of Ray Brown, John Dizzy Gillespie and Jim Hall.
Most importantly I hope to show you or your child a new way to love and appreciate music. And to provide you with the ability to have the most fun on your instrument as possible.
I am also part of Takelessons Skype lessons program (lessons that take place on the internet via Skype) for those looking for a more convenient or affordable way to take music lessons from home.
*** Lesson Details ***
Throughout my lessons, I always encourage basic skills including scales, sight-reading and technical exercises. But what I hope to give all my students is a basic understanding of music and their instrument, providing them with a practical ability to navigate the vast world of music for a lifetime.
Beyond these skills, I always have songs, styles and theory for you to work on but I am often more interested in what you as an individual want to learn on your instrument. Getting to learn concepts that you have chosen yourself will help encourage practice and will make the finished product all the more the rewarding.
I can custom tailor a teaching curriculum and/or style for any of my students: we can focus on learning songs, learning to read, how to write music, how music works, and even how to play specific styles of music (including funk, rock, jazz, Latin, flamenco, classical, country and blues). I also self tailor my own worksheets and set weekly goals with my students to help encourage practice, understanding and progress. For students interested in more advanced concepts, I can also teach ear training, music theory, advanced jazz improvisation as well as advanced playing techniques.
And... all this in a friendly and easy-going teaching environment.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Located in my home garage, it is equipped with a small stage, an upright piano, an electric keyboard, a PA system, amplifiers, a drum set, a lap steel guitar, a pedal steel guitar, 2 cellos, multiple guitars, a mandolin, a dobro, 2 5-string banjos, a 4-string tenor banjo, a ukulele, 2 accordions and 2 electric basses.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I can provide a guitar, cello (a full size), electric bass, a banjo, an amp, an accordion, cords and the occasional pick to students (sorry no spare mandolin or ukulele). I would only require an outlet and room to practice in; if the student could bring a pick that would be fantastic as well! I can also bring acoustic guitars if an outlet is unavailable and if that is in fact the kind of guitar the student wants to learn.
For piano students, it is best that they have their own piano or keyboard at their home; if the student is unable to obtain a piano for the first few lessons I do have a mobile keyboard but would require a fair amount of setting up.

Former Taliban hostage Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl has completed therapy and counseling at an Army hospital, CNN reported today. Bergdahl could return to active duty today as well. Bergdahl apparently abandoned his post on June 30, 2009, in Afghanistan and was captured and held by the Taliban for five years. An investigation into his disappearance, which led to the deaths of people searching for him, is being conducted, and officials want to talk to Bergdahl before issuing a ruling.

Last year, 12.6 million Americans were victims of identity fraud, where personal information was misused by a criminal to steal monies – either from individuals or from banks, stores, and other businesses.
To protect yourself from identity fraud, promptly remove mail from your mailbox and take immediate action on all security breach notices from businesses by changing logins and passwords. In addition, keep your private information securely stored in your home – 12% of identity fraud cases involve "familiar fraud" by someone whom the victim knows. Switching to less frequent or online statements can also reduce your risk.
Another way to protect yourself from identity fraud is to shred documents with confidential information. Generally, if a document contains a Social Security Number, financial account number, medical or legal information, a birth date, or a signature, you should shred it. In addition, shred pre-approved credit offers, convenience checks sent by your credit card provider, old pay stubs, canceled checks, and documents containing passwords and PINs.
Prescription medication labels should also be removed and destroyed or blacked out with permanent marker.
