    About Daniel C.

    4.8
    (5)
    I am a graduate of Valparaiso University with a degree in Music Education. I specialize in instrumental music, meaning that I have deeply researched and performed on most common instruments for band and orchestra. I am equally comfortable teaching any of these instruments through the high school level, and to returning adults. I have experience teaching band and orchestra full time, and teach out of my own studio. I occasionally perform on the side, on my primary instruments: oboe and percussion. As my student, you will find that I am good at making the process of making music very easy. You will be successful almost immediately, and find yourself constantly challenged and improving. *** Lesson Details *** While every lesson is individually tailored to the student and instrument, most lessons will include work on the following: Tone Production Rhythm accuracy Music Reading Instrument Basics/Method Book Music for Performance (the fun stuff) *** Specialties *** Able to hand make oboe reeds for oboe students. Can perform various minor instrument repairs, depending mainly on the repair needed.

    Dan is a great instructor And I couldn't go anywhere else. He is very patient with my 11 year old who often has many questions. Dan will answer and then redirect back to the lesson. It is obvious to me that Dan has the heart of a teacher and is very encouraging. He is professional and organized which makes it super easy for me.
