Clarinet Lessons in Drexel Hill. Amazing Teachers.

I aim to create a situation where students become enthusiastic and confident about performing the music they learn. I focus primarily on basic fundamentals but I also encourage students to develop and incorporate their own methods of practice.

I am happy to introduce myself. My name is Alexander. I graduated from the Curtis Institute of music and was performing all over the world since then with major orchestras, festivals and have collaborated with many great artists.

I was very fortunate to study with many great clarinets from different schools and traditions. I very much look forward to sharing my experience with you and hope to hearing from you soon. I promise to inspire you to work hard and will help you in preparation for your high school, college, music festivals auditions and much more! Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.

My major instrument in college was clarinet, but I am a woodwind specialist, having performance experience on flute, clarinet, and saxophone. I have a particular affinity for late beginners, and have had some success in helping these students catch up to their peers. All of my woodwind students use the Rubank method books in addition to any method books they may already be using in their band classes. I also introduce appropriate literature and studies specific to each instrument once the basics have been mastered. I encourage all of my woodwind students to participate in OMEA Solo and Ensemble contest and to audition for OMEA District and State Honor Bands.

I have been teaching clarinet professionally for 6 years. I have taught students from beginners to advanced. My teaching experience is based on fundamental knowledge and musical expression. Seeing making the progress of a student makes me feel happy and gives me inspiration to reach more with the students. I encourage students being good on their instruments because it has role not only for students' development, but also they can be great musicians and performers who will travel around the world.
