Instruments: Piano Flute Recorder Piccolo

For young beginners I typically with Suzuki Book 1 or the Abracadabra Flute Book.  For children preparing for NYSMA I use the Rubank method with supplements from Forty Little Pieces and gradually move on to more solo repertoire.  For adult students I make repertoire selections based on students' interests while taking care to keep lessons both engaging and fun no matter their starting level.  Although my training is primarily classical, I am happy to incorporate music from other genres into lessons.

All of my lessons, regardless of instrument, begin in the same way: warm ups!

For my instrumentalists, we work on breathing, proper technique for their instrument, and age appropriate repertoire. Read More
