Hello Friends!
I'm a professional flutist, teacher of flute, and freelance musician in greater Cleveland and Northeast Ohio and teach lessons in flute and recorder to students of all ages, abilities, and musical levels at my private studio, now relocating to Wooster, Ohio.
I earned my Master of Music degree from Oberlin Conservatory of Music and my Bachelor of Arts degree in History (summa cum laude/Phi Beta Kappa) from SUNY/University at Buffalo. I spent an additional three extraordinary years pursuing advanced music performance studies at the Hochschule für Musik und darstellende Kunst in Vienna, Austria. (And yes, I do speak German!)
As a freelance musician I've taught and performed in many different venues throughout the United States, Europe, and North Africa. I'm always thrilled to find opportunities to unite my background in history with my passion for classical music — however I can also truthfully say that I enjoy ALL styles of music including folk and jazz.

"Working with Susan was wonderful. She is totally dedicated to her students. She takes her instruction seriously and is patient with her students in helping them mature to their next level. Worth the investment." |
It's not where you start, it's where you end up!
I enjoy teaching students of ALL ages, levels & abilities.
If you are focused and want to improve rapidly, then I will gladly push you to help you realize your goal — such as getting into the local youth symphony or applying to a music school.
If you're looking for a more casual learning experience, I will help you in your pursuit of enjoyable music-making. I love helping my students gain confidence in their playing and musicality. It's not where you start, it's where you end up! Contact me for available lesson times and current tuition rates.
