About Me:
My personal approach and philosophy to teaching students involves positive feedback and sharing my knowledge from 44 years of experience of playing and studying the cello. It is important for the student to feel good about studying the cello or piano.
Working on fundamental skills is extremely important for all students. Choosing pleasing musical selections is also necessary for the healthy musical growth of the individual.
Hopefully, the student will also be able to apply the knowledge gained from my tutelage to other aspects of life.

The cello developed from the bass violin, first referred to by Jambe de Fer in 1556, which was originally a three-string instrument. The first instance of a composer specifying the bass violin may have been Gabrieli in Sacrae symphoniae, 1597.
