Cello Lessons in Glassell, CA

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola

In my lessons, I take an integrated approach to music education, drawing connections between music of practically any style, genre, or tradition; between musical technique, analysis, and expression; and between music as an abstract entity (e.g., a score, an acoustic phenomenon) and the cultural and historical context in which it is both composed and performed. I work on music not only from the Western classical tradition, but also from pop, rock, jazz, and folk music from around the world, as I believe all musical styles are worthy of exploration and consideration.

I have five years of teaching experience, starting through the Saturday Conservatory of Music and Belmont Music Studio, and currently teaching cello through The Youth Center in the Los Alamitos Unified School District, including at Lee Elementary and Los Alamitos Elementary. As a performer myself — with the San Gabriel Symphony, South Orange County Orchestra, and as a cellist who's played under conductors like Gustavo Dudamel and Rafael Payare — I try to bring that same discipline and joy for the music into my teaching.

For beginning students, I like to use the Suzuki Cello School books, approximately up to book 6. Then, I move to solo repertoire that is appropriate for the student and their musical goals. I like to use the Ivan Galamian Scale System for Violoncello. I also use the Yampolsky Violoncello technique book. For more technique exercises, I use the Feuillard Daily Exercises and assign exercises based on where the student needs improvement. Read More
