    About Elise B.

    5.0
    (1)
    I enjoy teaching the clarinet in more ways than just scales and exercises as there is so much to learn about it; reed making, performance practice, history, repair, construction, etc. After finishing my bachelors degree in clarinet performance at Indiana University, I studied instrument repair at Renton Technical college. After that I moved to the Netherlands to study historical clarinet, learning how to play on many different clarinets. There I also studied instrument construction which entails woodworking and some metal working. As much as playing in a variety of ensembles, I really enjoy watching students grow as clarinetists. Whether it is improving technique, being inspired by a piece the student wishes to play, or any number of curiosities, there is always something new to learn about the clarinet to keep the interest fresh and the musician blossoming.
