New Song Music Academy

We are thrilled to invite you to our last performance of the semester at Klyde Warren Park! 🌳

Our students and faculty have been working hard to prepare a wonderful concert for the Dallas community. In addition to our ‘Music From Movies’ concert, we are hosting an interactive Instrument Petting Zoo where guests of all ages can get hands-on and try the instruments for themselves.

This event is free and open to all ages. We can’t wait to see you there!

And that’s a wrap on our Spring Performances! 🎶

A huge thank you to all our students, families and faculty, for making this weekend so special.

Meet Elmer Tsai 🎶

Elmer’s musical journey began in the sixth grade in Taiwan, studying under the renowned violinist Wang Yen-Hua (王彥驊). His early dedication led to top placements in several national competitions, experiences that forged the discipline and artistry he brings to every performance. After moving to the U.S., Elmer served as concertmaster of the Texas A&M University student orchestra and performed extensively as a freelance violinist, strengthening his ability to connect with audiences through music.

What truly sets Elmer apart is the intersection of his artistic talent and his background as a software developer and mechanical engineer. With a B.S. from Texas A&M and an M.S. from Boston University, he brings a refreshingly analytical mind to his lessons. This technical training informs a structured teaching style that emphasizes clear, step-by-step progressions and healthy technique, allowing him to tailor his instruction to how each student best learns.

Elmer discovered his calling for teaching in high school and now shares his expertise in both violin and piano. Known for his patience and encouraging spirit, he creates a supportive environment where students of all levels feel motivated to grow. Whether teaching a beginner’s first notes or an advanced concerto, Elmer is dedicated to helping every student find their confidence.

💭 His philosophy: “Every student possesses a unique musical voice; my goal is to provide the tools and encouragement they need to let that voice sing.”
