Every student receives careful guidance and thorough preparation.  I love getting to know students and tailoring instruction to make learning unfold.  I have a Bachelor of Music Education degree and have taught and performed in many settings.  30+ years of experience along with constant honing of the craft insure a high quality learning opportunity.

Owner/Instructor

I directed the band program which included beginners through high school and conducted an excellent flute ensemble which performed at various venues. I taught classroom music and children's choir for grades K-6 and directed two concerts per year.  I prepared students for solo and ensemble competition.  Currently I teach individual lessons for students from DCS.

Music Instructor

Fritz Piano & Organ provided teaching space in a very convenient location, our local mall.

Piano Instructor

I taught private piano lessons to children and adults.

My music duties included high school theory classes, general music K - 12, handbell choirs, and concert choirs.  I also taught private lessons as needed. I presented two concerts per year and prepared students for interscholastic Fine Arts competition.

All piano and voice majors at CSSM participated in handbell choir in which new music was learned each week for a Saturday concert. These groups ranged from novice to very advanced. Additionally I taught private flute, theory class, and master classes.

Handbell Conductor, Flute Instructor

A beginning string class developed into an active performing group which received a Pennsylvania Arts grant to present live concerts in the Tri-County area. DASSE presented Music History Programs, Music at the Library, school demonstrations, and numerous other events.

The piano is truly a key to understanding music and a pathway to great enjoyment.  I provide an excellent foundation with solid technique and music literacy.  Your tuition includes not only your lessons appointments and my expertise, but also customized materials and prep time.  Part or all of on-line lessons can be recorded and referred to during practice sessions.  Studio lessons are enhanced by enrichment classes and optional performance opportunities. Participation in ensembles is highly recommended and supported.

Excellent teacher!  Very patient and easy to work with. I highly recommend taking a lesson with Edna.

I am enjoying working with Edna. She is patient and understanding and offers good feedback.

I am having a great time taking lessons with Edna.

I am very encouraged.  I think Edna is a great teacher.

Edna did a wonderful job introducing the flute and leading an informative lesson. Looking forward to next week.

Ms Edna’s well-thought-out lessons and activities demonstrate a high level of preparation and professionalism. Her dedication to the students' success is truly commendable, as she consistently goes above and beyond to ensure everyone's learning needs are met. I am grateful for such an outstanding teacher who truly cares about my kid's growth and development.

Edna is amazing.  She is so patient and so easy to talk to and learn from.  Very excited to keep going!!
