I lead family music classes at Midwest Young Artists Conservatory in Fort Sheridan, IL. I am excited to be teaching at this nationally known music school. My classes at MYAC involve young children and the grown-ups who take care of them. Live musical experiences are vitally important for children and I am proud to be presenting such experiences to families across Lake County.

These classes are in addition to the Music Together classes I lead in Lake Bluff and Libertyville.

I give formal music lessons to children and adults and I have been teaching music full-time since the last century! (1999)
I have released a collection of twenty(!) childrens' songs (well, the whole family is welcome to listen in, including dogs and most cats). They're free to listen to on my site.

No less than the Wall Street Journal recently published an article (October 10th) that summarizes the latest research into the notion that children who actively participate in music-making are, well, just plain smarter and become better students. The article also mentions that, somewhere in passing, that making music is just plain fun, so music study is sort of a win-win scenario.
