Music Lessons in Friant, CA

Instruments: Cello

I like to give my students a range of music they can choose from something that they would like to play, something that would make them want to practice because they are interested in learning It.

This is important because it can’t be too much work it has to be engaging and fun but technical so that the student can improve their skills. Read More
