Catherine is known for her deeply intuitive approach to her education and community work which is well-grounded in research and over twenty-five years of practical experience.

Her diverse and adaptive skill set which enables Catherine to tailor her teaching to the needs of her pupils and bring out the best in their playing.

Choice is very important for a musician in finding their own personal interpretation of the music they are playing. In order to have that choice you have to know what your options are. I work with all kinds of instrumentalists helping them develop their musical palette and expressive capacity. I help people to find the joy and delight in detailed practice that brings a freedom, flexibility and confidence in performance while honouring and supporting each individual in finding their unique musical voice.
