Six teachers, one hall

• 

  Shota Hirose

• 

  Freda Cornwell

  Piano and harp

• 

  Siyu Xue

  Violin, guitar and ukulele

  Siyu teaches violin to young beginners and guitar and ukulele to older students and to families who want to play together. She sets up each student's instrument herself and shows parents how to help at home.

• 

  Marisol Martinez

  Violin, viola and cello

• 

  Wilbur Atwell

  Clarinet, flute, saxophone and recorder

  Wilbur teaches the wind instruments and helps school band students with their parts. He starts every wind student with how to hold the instrument and how to breathe, and he will tell you honestly when a student is not yet big enough for one.

• 

  Gunnar Ericson

  Voice, drums and hand percussion

  Gunnar teaches singers of every age and drummers from their first rhythms. A practice pad is in every drum lesson, and he helps families choose a quiet one for home.
