As things open up again and people feel more able to venture out of their homes, my service will get busier, but I am committed to offering the most flexible… Read more »

Hi everyone. As we approach Christmas, I have more and more rehearsals and events to attend, so evening and weekend lesson availability can drop.

Damian OxboroughComments Off on Music Lessons that are VARIED and FLEXIBLE
I know of many piano, guitar and singing teachers in the Yorkshire area that are constantly on the look out for new students. It’s the same old phrase I hear all the time: “I could just do with a handful more pupils on the books.” I feel lucky that I rarely experience that problem, and I mostly put my good… Read more »

Last week was a really good week for my students: two have got good passes in their ABRSM piano exams – a Grade 4 and a Grade 7. I always feel really pleased for people who come out of an exam with the grade that they deserve. Especially because I remember failing a piano exam when I was a teenager;… Read more »

I’m thinking about doing another charity students concert sometime around the beginning of December, with a festive flavour and hopefully featuring more ensemble performances than have been in previous concerts.
