Lessons
A lot can be learned in a classroom, but private music lessons are an opportunity to receive personalized instruction to improve technique, tone, diction, and musicianship. That said, I also want these to be fun, engaging and cater to your interests!
Here’s a little more information about the lessons I offer. Take a look around and, if you have any questions, go to the “Contact” page to ask away - I’m happy to answer! If it sounds like something you’re interested in, let’s set up a first lesson and go from there.
Start the Summer with Music!
Let’s get going on your musical journey - the first lesson’s on me.
Voice
Lessons involve classical, Broadway and pop styles simultaneously but emphasis is given based on the student's preference (Schubert to Schwartz, Donizetti to Adele!).
Voice students are expected to practice every day at home for the same amount of time each day as their lesson duration. Lessons are times to address issues and improve technique, NOT to learn the music. Students who show up unprepared may be sent home with no lesson fee refund.
Piano
