What can you expect from a lesson with me? ~Whether you're playing your very first notes, looking for a deeper tone, or are trying to get top marks in your next exam, we can broaden your instrumental and musical versatility tailored to your path. - Optimising your technique to maximise musical potential and thereby avoiding physical discomfort, tension, and chance of injury. -LESS IS MORE... Can't practise for 6 hours a day? Not a problem! Let me point you in the right direction for fitting in some efficient practice around your busy schedule -There's more to life than just notes, and there's definitely more to music than just notes. How do you convey your feelings in music? What was Beethoven suggesting when he wrote this motif? Explore music beyond the confines of the left and right hands through broadening your knowledge of music -Is all good art made from suffering? No. Let's look at the benefits of the tried and tested holistic practices eg. breath work, relaxation techniques, yoga, calisthenics, stretching and more... -Don't want to play the classical back catalogue? Bach, Brahms, and Beethoven isn't for everyone. We can explore different styles from around the world old and new. Feel free to drop me a message with any questions :)
