I love sharing the gift of music with my students. It is a joy to see their musicality develop over time, and how this brings them new confidence and self-esteem, especially when they share their music with their families. We have two family "house-concerts" a year which are delightful and heart-warming events.

Below are some pics of my varied life in music:
