Private Lessons in Rochester, NY, Ithaca, NY, and Online
About Gavin’s Teaching:
Gavin is a very passionate music educator. He is currently in his final year of a very rigorous music education program at Ithaca College. For the past three years, Gavin has taught a small studio of students from Rochester and Ithaca, NY. These students range from very beginners to high school seniors preparing for college auditions.
Gavin firmly believes that private lessons are an essential experience for musicians looking to improve at their craft. In private lessons, Gavin is able to offer the individualized attention to each student that they may not receive elsewhere. Through lessons, each student will be encouraged to grow through falling in love with the process of improving and the music they are making.
Students of Gavin have all had great success on their instruments. Many students from elementary to high school age have received high scores on their NYSSMA solos and placed in the All-County or higher bands. On top of private lessons, Gavin has also served as a clinician for many school districts across the Greater Rochester region. At Ithaca College, Gavin has been heavily involved in their Trombone Day, serving as a choir conductor and educator.
