Private Instruction
As part of the required curriculum, students attend one-hour private lessons
weekly with our performance faculty. During this time students primarily address
technique, solo literature, and performance practice. Additionally, chamber
and ensemble literature may be coached. Private lessons are part of the standard
tuition charges and do not pose an additional expense.
