Central College Clarinet and Saxophone Studio
My Central College studio consists of clarinet and saxophone students who are pursuing a variety of majors. Our active chamber ensembles include clarinet choir, saxophone trio/quartet, and clarinet quartet. I also have a studio of high school clarinetists. Please contact me if you are interested in taking lessons, or finding out more about my studio. |
