  • I've been teaching private music lessons for over 20 years. In October of 2008 I found a wonderful space for a music studio, and Tartan Tundra Music was born.

    Instruments taught:

    Violin/Fiddle:in many styles including Classical, Celtic, Old Timey, Alaskan, International (Russian, Scandinavian, Eastern European) and more.

    Mandolin: Mainly in Old Timey and Celtic styles, but the mandolin is just as versatile as the violin and can be used in many wonderful kinds of music.

    Guitar: Folk, rock, oldies, Celtic... Ukulele: One of the most amusing and fun instruments ever! And great for beginners of all ages!

    Viola: A viola is larger than a violin with a lovely, deep sound, but the method of playing is the same as violin.

    Bodhrán: Irish drum. There is an art to this, it isn't just whacking away on a drum head. Fun and interesting.

    Vocal Coaching: I can help you get your voice out in the open and help you sing.

Take Music Lessons via Skype, Facetime or Google

  • Taking Distance Lessons
    Distance Lessons are $36 per half hour, and $54 for 45 minutes. Lessons are taken via various apps such as Facetime, Zoom, or Google Meet. I prefer FaceTime for the quality and ease of use, but there are many ways to connect. You must have a web camera and have the app for one of on your computer, laptop, tablet or phone. Also, please let me know which one you want to use!

Lessons Back On Track

Looks like the weather has settled down and the temperatures will drop to what we Alaskans call normal. And the roads look to be driveable! So I'm heading back to the studio to conduct lessons as usual this Wednesday, January 16.

I'd like to thank all the students who adjusted to the circumstances so happily and had their lessons on Skype. It all worked out very well.

I also enjoyed meeting grandparents, dogs, cats, cousins, and little brothers and sisters! I was also treated to some big antlers on the walls, and some lovely art in the background. Sorry that my computer office has nothing more to offer than dogs and a battery charger. On the other hand, many of you got to hear the goofy comments from the peanut gallery as uttered by my parrot, Bucky. (WOW! WOW! Buck buck buck buckAW!)

See you back at Tartan Tundra!
