    About Clive C.

    I have taught cello lessons for about 10 years. I am a technically oriented teacher and have a system of teaching that promotes rapid advancement. For beginners Phase I of my program involves working through Suzuki BKs 1-4. This takes the student to mastery of 4th position. I teach both children and adults, and enjoy doing so. Many of my students have gone from back of the section to 1st chair within one year. I can also teach students at the late High School and College level. I am a graduate of The Juilliard School where I was an Honorary Scholarship student of Harvey Shapiro. Currently I teach at Tapps Music, in our new state of the art Studios, designed for optimal acoustics. Clive Coe; BM The Juilliard School 1979
