The sound of the cello is said to be very close to the sound of the human voice. Perhaps for this reason, many composers such as Bach and Haydn have written works specifically for the instrument. Even though we often associate the cello with classical music, these days cello is heard in pop, rock, and hip hop as well.
Flexible Schedules
We know that everyone's situation is a little different, so when we match you with a teacher we keep your schedule in mind. Lessons can be 45, 60, or 90 minutes long depending on your needs.
Perhaps you have an interest in the cello. If so, you came to the right place. Encore Music Lessons has assisted many students of various ages and abilities in connecting with professional cello instructors in their area.
Learning the cello is good for you
While it's fun to learn an instrument, it may also benefit your health. Playing your cello can relieve stress and help you feel more grounded in the present.
In your lessons you can learn the basics of playing the cello. Your teacher can show you how to hold the bow properly with your right hand, and how to apply pressure to get a clean sound. Lessons will also address proper left hand technique including positions and the production of vibrato.
Intermediate and advanced students may be interested in particular pieces or musical genres. Students who have upcoming auditions can feel free to take some lessons to help prepare.
Whatever you're looking for in an instructor, we're sure to match you with someone who's a good fit. To find out more feel free to call us at 212-537-6746 or 800-417-4620.

Student Reviews
I'm an adult student that's been studying w/ Nick, once a week for the past 8 months. If you're new to Piano or have a passion in music of ANY genre, trust me, definitely consider him. Not only does he have a great amount of patience for crazy off-key students like me, but regardless of my random struggles, he had the ability to identify the source of the issue and provide a solution. A MacGyver of piano teachers. He constantly challenges me - I'm the type of person who tends to decline in what I am or am not interested in doing or willing to do. But I've always left satisfied, patient and hopeful that my music career will be successful one day. With Nick it's not just about learning piano and songs, but the core root of music in general-- theory and composition that I badly need as an artist. I definitely look forward to continuing my studies with Nick.
