Music Lesson Instructors in Kenmore, Washington (King County)

I am a professional cellist and teach all levels. I have been teaching privately for 35 years and have coached the Seattle Youth Symphony, taught at Marrowstone Music Festival and Marrowstone-in-the-City. My strengths are helping students to the most natural and efficient use of their body to play the cello, while striving for the most beautiful music-making they are capable of. I use some classic and some new and innovative repertoire to teach with. I am a frequent performer in the area, and students are encouraged to attend some performances of mine and others to see all the types of music we get to play.... See More

My students have opportunities to participate in educational music events sponsored by local music teachers associations.

I draw from my experience playing a wide variety of styles in professional situations to tailor my piano lessons to the individual student's goals while building a solid foundation in theory and technical fundamentals. I can provide instruction in improvisation and playing by ear, a classical analysis and interpretation approach, or a combination of the two. I studied jazz piano at the University of Washington and have been teaching and performing professionally for the past two decades.... See More

Highly accomplished and innovative piano teacher with 30 years experience. Conservatory graduate. I teach all levels and all ages, with a specialty in adult beginners and adults returning to the piano after an absence. In addition to classical music I teach jazz & pop styles and improvisation. My approach to technique is based on solid understanding of the body (arms, hands, fingers) and not on dull repetition of mechanical exercises. I also emphasize ear training, playing by ear and harmonizing songs, learning about chords and about "how music works."
I also teach beginning teachers, or teachers wanting to improve the quality of their teaching and the ability to draw more students to their studios.... See More
