Cello Lessons in Sheepshead Bay, NY

Instruments: Cello

I teach anyone who shares the passion for cello (or violin, or chamber music). I tend to attract many adults who always wanted to play the cello, but postponed it, and finally decided its now or never. Similarly, I teach a number of adults who played through adolescence, but quit, and now want to return to playing. Ive been teaching since I was a teen-ager, and fortunately, multiple decades later, Im still cherishing every student, every moment of music making. Read More

I truly believe that its never too late to start, and anything is possible. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing people develop a passion for music.

The golden rule of teaching music for me is to always offer a challenge that the student can manage, whether it be a very small degree of difficulty or a larger degree of difficulty. Learning is its own reward and both are essential to nurture and sustain interest in learning to play an instrument. A students ability to absorb and retain information is an integral part of their evolving psychological and musical maturity. Read More
