Strings and Beginner Piano Lessons

His students have performed full length solo and group recitals in both formal and “informal” settings. His students have successfully auditioned for HSPVA, Houston’s All-City Orchestra, and Region orchestras.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need my own instrument?
Yes, I recommend that each student has their own instrument. With the exception of piano students, each student should also bring their own instrument to each lesson. It is crucial for each student’s progress that they have a properly functioning instrument both at home and in the lesson.
How do I find an instrument?
I recommend that string students invest in a rental instrument as opposed to purchasing an instrument. My favorite string shop in Houston is Lisle Violin Shop. They offer affordable, high-quality instruments which come with most of the necessary starting accessories. It is not advisable to buy an instrument online from Amazon or Walmart as these are usually non-functioning and very low-quality. For piano students, I recommend searching Facebook marketplace for a cheap electric keyboard with weighted keys.
