Clarinet Lessons in Derby, OH

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Flute Clarinet Drums Bassoon Keyboard

My lesson styles are geared towards the end goals of the students. As not all students will have the desire to become professional musicians, the ultimate goal is to build lifelong lovers of the arts...and if the student decides that music is a career, then the lessons are geared accordingly.

I also allow time in the lesson for students to work through any areas of difficulty they may have in their school band music. Read More
