Lessons

Cello lessons

Learn the beauty and love of the instrument from a professional, classically trained Cellist. Tyr will guide you or your child through the multiple pathways that music offers, in a serene and stress free environment. Not only will you learn how to play the cello, you will find a community of other musicians.

Piano lessons

The piano is a complex and powerful instrument, with the ability to be played loud and strong, or very soft and delicate. Students will learn how to harness the beauty and force of the piano by better understanding its role and function. Lessons take place on one of two instruments; our turn of the century white upright piano with ivory keys, or our 1920’s Kranich & Bach baby grand.

Some words from our students

I’ve always wanted to learn an instrument, so I picked piano because I would eventually like to compose. Boy was I in over my head, but Justin is very patient and makes piano fun. I can see myself getting better, and I appreciate him as a piano teacher

Tyr is a phenomenal teacher, simply put, and one that I am so proud to have guided me into the world of cello. She knows when to push you, when to give you a helping hand, and when to let a revelation come after hours of practice. Above all, Tyr teaches a wholehearted and unending love for the cello. I can’t imagine what my life would be like if I hadn’t taken up this beautiful instrument.

I always thought the cello was a beautiful instrument, but little did I know how hard it is to learn! Luckily I found Tyr. She is a very patient and kind teacher with a creative approach, who really believes in and challenges her students. It has been a life-changing experience. Not only did I learn how to play the cello, I also found a community of other musicians. Thank you Tyr 🙂

I decided to start learning the cello in my late twenties and consider it one of my best decisions in the last ten years. Tyr has been an excellent and accommodating teacher who challenges in all the right ways to ensure I'm always learning!

Justin is a pleasure to work with. He's accompanying me (an adult piano learner with an RCM degree) to explore new approaches, getting off the page into lead sheets, chords, rhythm variations, composition and much more. I'm happy with what's getting under my fingers. Delighted that we're connected!

I started taking cello lessons with Tyr in 2009, at a turning point in my life. I find her teaching inspiring and artistically challenging. Our weekly encounters bring me joy and laughter while sharing the most pleasant gift for the soul that is music.

Mes leçons avec Justin m’ont non seulement permis d’apprendre à jouer d’un instrument mais aussi de mieux comprendre la musique dans son ensemble. Chaque leçon m’apporte un peu plus de connaissances et me permet de m’améliorer.
