Clarinet Lessons Duval County, FL

Instruments: Voice, Clarinet, Recorder

For the more advanced, I will start with a few warm-ups, and breath exercises before singing a short song (happy birthday, and/or prepared piece) before determining vocal range and repertoire. For clarinet beginners, I typically start with the "David Hite" methods book, and the "Big and Beautiful" technique outlined in "Squeak Big".

With many years experience and training, I have worked with students of all ages and abilities. My students are successful because lessons are challenging but fun, positive and enjoyable.

I am an active performer, playing in several orchestras in the area, giving recitals and playing in various small ensembles. Read More

I will sometimes play to give an example or send a link to a recording to help the student. I encourage students to go at their own pace. For example, if a student is playing band music that is very easy, I will assign them something else to work on to help them continue to advance. Read More
