Meet Our Faculty
AT THE FRISCO SCHOOL OF MUSIC
“Providing students of all ages with
the skills to enjoy music for a lifetime.”
Our teachers are chosen for their extensive musical
background in their specific instrument discipline, and for their genuine dedication to
teaching.
Our Faculty is the heart and soul of the Frisco School of Music. All
of our teachers are university trained and/or have real-world performance experience. We have a very distinguished
and diverse Faculty representing many different cultures from around the world. Many of our teachers have studied
with renowned university professors and famous performers, and bring their vast experiences to our students here in
Frisco.
We are very selective in who we hire at the Frisco School of
Music. Potential teachers go through a detailed interview process, a live musical performance review, a criminal
back-ground check, reference check, school observation, and a meeting with our Administrative Team. Our degreed
Executive Director, with over 35 years of teaching experience, personally makes all of the hiring decisions at the
Frisco School of Music.
We invite you to look at the posted Faculty Biographies in our lobby.
You will be amazed at the vast musical experiences that are represented at our School. You can't help but notice
the years and years of music study, lessons started from when they were very young, hours and hours of practicing,
as well and honors, awards, performances, famous groups and performers they have played with, master classes they
participated in around the world, scholarships and competitions they have won, scads of recitals and concerts
performed at professional music halls, as members of cruise ship bands, country club and restaurant gigs, churches
of all denomination, bluegrass festivals and big band jazz groups - just to mention a few!
Our teachers care about their students and delight in seeing
them develop into intermediate and advancing independent musicians. They are vibrant, brilliant, personable, and
encouraging. They will impart to you all that you are open to learn from them. We have a great location, and
wonderful facilities, but we believe that it is our Faculty that will draw you here for years to
come.
Our teachers have received their education from prestigious
institutions such as: University of North Texas, Southern Methodist University, Texas Women’s University, Texas
A&M (Commerce), University of Texas (Austin), Stephen F. Austin University, Eastman School of Music, Washburn
University (Kansas), Brookhaven College, Northlake College, US Army School of Music, University of Oradea

of Music (China) and more.
Many of our instructors have gone on performance tours of the US and
Europe and have years and years of professional performance and teaching experience.
In addition to their teaching credentials, our teachers have warm
personalities, are extremely friendly, so they get to get to know each student and their parent on a personal
level.
Your private lesson teacher will help prepare you for all of the
performance events held throughout the year.
