Experienced tutor in Piano in Santa Rosa, Mary offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

We are very fortunate to have such an accomplished and dedicated music teacher in Santa Rosa.  Mary has been teaching my two daughters piano and voice for three years and their improvement has been phenomenal.  She is precise and technical in her teaching, yet engages the girls in a thoughtful and positive way.  The semiannual recital and reception is especially enjoyable and a wonderful performing experience for the students.

Mary was an exceptional teacher.  As a vocal coach she emphasizes proper breathing, vowel shape, healthy range growth, and posture. Her study was a space of safe experimentation and growth which made me look forward to my lessons beforehand, and relaxed, more confident, and enthusiastic about my progress afterwards. Mary has an approachable, warm, relatable personality. As a coach, she is easy to talk to and welcomes any and all questions and concerns. Her extensive knowledge of vocal technique and performance is impressive. I’m am so happy to have worked with Mary, her expertise and emphasis on healthy singing only lead to positive things both in my singing and everyday life.

"I came to Mary as an older adult.  Over the years I had studied with several teachers with good reputations, but when I began with Mary I realized I had never learned real vocal technique.  Suddenly I'm finding I have a voice I never knew was there.  And it keeps on getting  better."  

—“Our kids have studied with Mary for many years. Mary teaches how to feel and understand the music along with the technique and theory.  She tailors her teaching to how our kids learn and enjoys understanding them as individuals.  Not only can our kids play beautifully but we believe that they have grown by how Mary helps them approach challenges with music that they can apply to other aspects in their lives."    --TMW
