I've been performing and teaching most of my life. I'm aware that not everyone learns the same way or at the same rate, so I've developed the ability to customize lesson plans for the individual to ensure they learn the right way the first time.
Unique Music Lessons taylored to your learning style. Soma Stein Music practices what she preaches and gigs all around Boise. Soma Stein has received rave reviews from Boise Weekly for her music, and great reviews on Groupon for her teaching methods.
I have over 25 years of experience in the music industry as a guitar player, singer and songwriter. I have a knack for finding my students' strengths and keeping the process of learning music fun!
I grew up playing classical and jazz music so I have a strong foundation in music theory. I bring a fun approach to music lessons and love sharing my gift of music. My teaching style allows new musicians to develop a deep understanding and connect it with the knowledge you already have. I really enjoy seeing new musicians playing music sooner than they expected and the joy it brings to their life.
I've been playing music for over twenty years and teaching in some form or another for ten years (as of 2017!) I specialize in Celtic fiddle and harp, and I also trained in classical violin for a number of years and love helping students learn classical music through the Suzuki method. I've played with numerous bands as both lead fiddle and backup fiddle/harp in the Sacramento and Boise areas, and have played at venues such as the Knitting Factory, the Egyptian Theater, the Nampa Civic Center, and the Sapphire Room. My current band is called Beyond the Burren, which features Celtic, Scandinavian, and Appalachian music played by myself and thr

I have over 30 years experience teaching students from preschool to college level. I am also active as an accompanist and ensemble performer. I have a Master of Music degree from Northwestern University in Piano Performance and Pedagogy. I also have completed coursework toward a Doctor of Music degree in Piano Performance and Pedagogy with a Music Theory minor.
The basis of my teaching philosophy is that any student can establish a love and appreciation of music through guided practice, developing their skills and creativity, and having fun. This is applicable regardless of the area of study – harp, piano, ukulele and even vocal performance.
As a dedicated and enthusiastic teacher, I aim to provide a comprehensive music education through weekly lessons that are tailored to my students’ needs and interests. I believe in teaching a strong core of music theory, technique, sight-reading, and ear training so my students have a well-balanced musical education.

Piano has always been my passion. I began lessons at age 7, and absolutely fell in love with the sounds and nuances of the piano. By age 9, I knew that I wanted to teach piano as my career choice; I wanted to instill a love of music in others as my teacher had done.

I specialize in working with students on what their goals are and how they want to learn. Piano lessons are geared to the students needs and desires.
