FLUTE / CLARINET / ALTO SAX / TRUMPET LESSONS FOR CHILDREN
AND ADULTS
We teach private flute, clarinet, alto and trumpet
lessons for all levels, and students may add a Star Power Band for the ultimate music making
opportunity.
Researchers agree that learning to play an instrument improves test
scores, helps students with higher math achievement, builds self confidence, improves coordination and
problem-solving, increases fine motor development and much more – including fostering the basic intrinsic value of
developing a love and joy for the arts and music.
Performances are available for each level of
study.
PLUS: Join our Practice Club with weekly prizes and chances
to win a local area gift certificate twice each year.
PRIVATE FLUTE LESSONS
Ages five through adult
In a private flute lesson, the teacher has the opportunity to help the student individually for the entire
lesson time, and structures each lesson personally for the student depending on their skill level and goals. We
teach all styles of music, from beginning basics through baroque, classical, popular and familiar songs– you name
it!
Young students begin with a recorder and learn all of the fingerings, breathing techniques, posture, and more
concepts, learning a lot of basics before moving on to the flute (this lets the student focus on the most important
aspects of playing without holding a heavy instrument). Students usually upgrade to a full size flute around the
3rd or 4th grade, or earlier with a curved mouthpiece, or if they are more physically developed at a younger age,
it all depends on arm length (need to be able to reach the g# key with their pinkie finger without struggling to do
so).
Private flute students are welcome to perform at our Coffee House Shows, Music Showcase in June (optional), take
the Texas State Theory Test in May (optional) and also participate in our Rising Star Music Competition in January
(optional)and Achievement Auditions (optional).
