My name is Rowanne, and I have graduated in Voice - Performance from Berklee College of Music.

Instruments: Saxophone Clarinet

For beginner saxophone and clarinet players I tend to use the first book in the series from Standard of Excellence.

I also assisted my colleagues on the woodwind instruments. --Since I graduated from Morehead State University in 2014, I began my career as a elementary music teacher in Oklahoma. Read More
