Semi-Private Lessons

Semi-Private Lessons are when 2 or 3 kids take a lesson at the same time. This is not a private lesson, but is a much smaller group than a group class. This is great for 2 siblings or friends that are similar in age and skill level and can learn at the same pace. We can do a Semi-Private lesson on any instrument.

Liz is a dedicated, passionate musician and vocalist from Denton, Texas. She often spends her free time weaving new little tunes on her favorite instruments and imagining lyrics to match.

She enjoys performing anything from Chopin’s nocturnes to old hymns, movie soundtracks and Adele. She believes music has no rules and is never meant to be a chore - practice and perfection follows passion. Her goal as a teacher and artist is to encourage other music lovers to sing and play simply because it is their love and joy to do so.
