Cello Lessons in Stayton, OR

Instruments: Cello

I am a passionate performer who pushes students to not only do their best, but also to learn the history and theory behind their pieces and have fun while doing so. As a cellist, I have performed with the Bellevue Youth Symphony, Sammamish Symphony, Waynesboro Symphony, and Washington State University chamber groups. I have also been a concert soloist and a concerto competition finalist on multiple occasions for recital and solo works. Read More

We then held a large concert as well as performed with the Sacramento Philharmonic at a Link Up concert. Read More
