Lessons

Private flute lessons offered. All ages and experience levels. For areas surrounding Neptune, NJ.

Private lessons are offered in my home studio on a half-hour or one hour time slot. Music for lessons is based on studies and etudes for scale practice and related skills, pupil/teacher duets for reading and intonation, solos for flute alone and with piano accompaniment to provide performance skills and build repertoire, and new music to develop sight-reading skills.

Students supply a notebook to record the lesson assignments and bring it to each lesson for follow-up and receive the new assignment. Practicing is an individual matter, but should be on a regular basis to promote steady and continued progress.

Pupils are encouraged to perform in school concerts and church services. Preparation is offered to pupils who are auditioning for all-Shore and Region Band tryouts.

High school age students may qualify for The Festive Flutes semi-professional flute choir, which I founded and direct. Eligibility depends on a good sense of timing, good sight-reading ability, and a general overall sense of good musicianship.

Music can add a beautiful enrichment to your life providing pleasure and enjoyment for yourself and others. We will work toward that goal.
