About Marshall M.
5.0
(4)
Hi, I'm Marshall. I was born into a family of actors, artists, and musicians and was raised on the stage of the Theatricum Botanicum in Topanga, California, a family-run theater. I started music lessons at four on piano and later began cello at twelve. As a middle and high school student, I played with community orchestras throughout Los Angeles, and after graduation from the Hamilton Academy of Music, went on to study at Cal State University, Northridge, double majoring in cello and English literature. I afterwards moved to Germany for almost a decade, studying in Trossingen, Mannheim, and Berlin, resulting in a lot of great teachers, masterclasses and performance opportunities. After recently moving back to Los Angeles, I work as an assistant to a number of different Film/TV composers here in LA as well as playing orchestra and doing studio work whenever I can. It's about time for some cello lessons though, wouldn't you say?

Marshall is amazing! He has been working with my middle school son online for 8 months and the growth is phenomenal! My son had his very first lesson in June which consisted of how to hold the cello). By December my son is one of the top Cello players in the advanced orchestra! I was hesitant at first about it being online but it has been the best experience! As a school psychologist I was instantly impressed and amazed at Marshall's instructional techniques and highly recommend him for all levels! Thank you Marshall!!

I wanted to improve my piano skills (I'm an actor- it comes in handy). So far, I've had about ten lessons with Marshall at his studio in Topanga, and I'm already so much more confident. We started out reviewing what I knew- scales, arpeggios, etc, and now we are on to full pieces (Chopin, Mozart) and sight-reading skills. Marshall is AWESOME and has a great sense of humor. Super happy to have found him.
