About Teacher Moshe
Moshe Vilozny was raised in Santa Cruz and studied music at Cabrillo College and UCSC. He worked as a professional musician for many years before getting his teaching credential and moving from music performance to music education.
Voice and guitar are his primary instruments, but as an elementary music teacher, Moshe has learned to play a little bit of everything. You can learn more about Moshe and listen to some of his original compositions at Teacher Moshe's Website.
