Cello Lessons El Paso County, CO

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Cello, Drums, Bass Guitar, Synthesizer, Music, Keyboard

Especially on piano and keyboards, I have found that combining classical music and learning from books with learning music that students enjoy listening to on their own can revolutionize how students learn and enjoy their instrument.

Instruments: Cello

I began learning cello with the Suzuki method at age five.
