Miss Emily, Our Saxophone & Clarinet Instructor

Please join me in a warm welcome for Miss, Emily our Saxophone and Clarinet Teacher!

Emily grew up in Allentown, Pennsylvania and started playing saxophone in fourth grade.  In high school, looking for a new challenge, she took up clarinet, playing in marching band, jazz band, and concert band.  She chose BU instead of a conservatory to pursue interests outside of music, including French literature and anthropology.  Nowadays, when she’s not playing, Emily likes yoga, playing with her cat, Rosie, and cooking, especially pastries.

Preparing for a performance...

 I am often asked why I offer so many activities for students.  I offer group classes, nursing home recitals, formal winter recitals, personal in home recitals, Piano Guild and piano parties.  I offer these as an opportunity for students to participate in IF they choose to do so.  I believe that the more opportunities students have to perform in front of others the easier it becomes as students learn how to deal with all of the emotions and stresses of performing in a variety of settings.  Below is a link to a great article about overcoming performance anxieties.  Please check it out.
