I beleive that the most important part of playing music is the joy of it. It is very important for me that the student will enjoy playing and enjoy coming to the lesson, and have a positive experience of making music.

I have been teaching for over 40 years. In my studio, my focus is on repertoire, however I also cover ear training, theory and composition.

It's one thing to gain knowledge in how to sing (or play), but it's another when you can communicate effectively with your instrument so that everyone else can feel it. Read More
