Studio Community

I strongly believe that performing for and with others is an important aspect of a) learning to play an instrument and b) having a fulfilling, successful musical life.  I promote a supportive, healthy atmosphere and provide ample opportunities for performances and group work in my studio through the following avenues:

  • Seasonal recitals for children
  • Bi-monthly master classes for adults
  • Opportunities to collaborate on pieces with other students if desired
