Persephone

I come from a family of musicians. My father is a successful composer, pianist and organist. My mother, a pianist and flautist, is an exceptional teacher and musician. Music has been and remains my life and my passion regardless of genre and style. Now settled in Tadley, I hope to be able to continue through my teaching to share with others the joy that music has given me and to work with enthusiastic and passionate learners, young and old.

Availability: I am available week days and weekends but can be flexible with evening lessons.

Willing to travel: 8 miles

Experience: I am a highly trained and experienced pianist, having achieved Grade 8 under the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music at the age of 12. I have given many public performances at such venues as The Anvil International Concert Hall, The Festival Theatre (Maltings) in Aldeburgh and Bracknell Arts Centre. I performed in a regular series of public recitals at Lord Wandsworth College, where I trained classically but also took part in many musical theatre performances.

In the field of Secondary Education I have provided vocal coaching, piano teaching and choral studies at The Vyne Performing Arts School to children aged between 10 and 16. I have accompanied students for instrumental examinations, and assisted students in the performance element of GCSE music examinations. I continue to direct my own independent music teaching practice for both children and adults in Rushden.
