MusicSmiths Flute Studio

I'm glad you're here! Music educators will tell you that private lessons are a sound investment in a child's education. Music study develops skills that apply to all other areas of life. Playing an instrument instills self-discipline, self-motivation, expression, and confidence. Most importantly, music is a collaborative art form -- by its nature, it connects people and builds communities.

​

Or, put another way . . . private lessons provide the "Miracle-Gro" that spurs a budding flute player to flower into a mature flutist! 

​

Here are just a few of the things you can learn in private lessons:

​

        How to develop a beautiful tone and master breath control on the flute (hint: they're interrelated)

​

        How to add vibrato to your sound

​

        Fingerings and fingering hacks

​

        A wide variety of musical styles, from classical to jazz to pop

​

       How to play piccolo -- and maybe my alto and bass flutes, too!

​

When you join my flute studio, you are joining a community of students just like yourself who love playing the flute and finding new friends through their shared interest in music.
