Clarinet Lessons Mountain

Instruments: Clarinet

Besides personal growth on the clarinet, my goal is to help establish and maintain a love of clarinet and music for each student. I like to be flexible in my lesson plans and tailor my teaching to the needs of the student. I like to ask what the goals are for the student and parents and what they expect from me as a teacher. I believe in working hard but also being patient and acknowledging my students success. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Recorder

  I also perform concerts and record with Combo Amazo, a band that plays original jazz, blues, bluegrass, and klezmer.  We were featured on the several NPR radio shows including E-town with Richie Havens. I lead a strolling duo on clarinet with guitar that played in the Denver International Airport Concert Series for 20 years and is available for any event.   I decided to teach because I wanted to share the enthusiasm and joy I have for music with students.  I feel passionate about helping develop a child’s talents as a musician.

Instruments: Clarinet

My method is altered depending on the student's age, skill level, and ultimate goals. For beginners, we start with the fundamentals of playing and caring for the instrument as well as the basic of reading music.  As the student starts to get a firm grasp on the fundaments, we will begin moving towards the goals of the student. Those goals differ from student to student. It may be to be able to play in a community band, earn a first chair seat in your schools band, build a strong audition portfolio, or even just to be able to perfect a favorite song. Read More
