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, sample teaching review, 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 denominations, 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. 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

Odessa State Music Academy (Ukraine), University of Arkansas, Loyola University (Louisiana), Xinghai Conservatory
of Music (China) and more.
Many of our instructors have toured 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, and get to know each student and their parent on a personal level. Our
teachers are employees (not contractors renting space), work together as a Faculty, and sign a teaching committment
agreement.
Your teacher will help prepare you for all of our performance
events held throughout the year.
