Private Lessons

Cally is an enthusiastic instructor, and works with students of all ages and skill levels. Her studio attracts ambitious students from all over the world including United States, Canada, The Netherlands, Mexico, Japan, Germany, Australia, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway, and more.  

Local lessons (Chicago) may be in person, all other lessons are held over Zoom. Many of her students have been admitted to prestigious music schools, all-district & all-state festivals, youth orchestras, and have received high ratings at solo & ensemble festivals. Her studio's adult students are frequently top members of their local community orchestras and bands and some are active professional musicians.

Don't be intimidated; students of all ages and skills are welcome! From adult learners coming back from a years-long break to a young family looking for beginner lessons for their 9-year old child, I work with everyone.
