I was hoping that I could get some referrals for a new clarinet instructor. I have been studying the clarinet for the past three years (an adult beginner). I have recently left my last instructor due to her having too many performance and family commitments.
I have reached a point where I have been able to fix most of my problems with technique, intonation, but still not very fast. In addition on technical pieces - my rhythm leaves a lot to be desired. Unlike many adults I o enjoy practicing and can usually fit in 45 min to an hour a day, 5 days a week
Would like to find an instructor who takes adults and has some experience teaching adults. Any recommendations would be helpful.

I just did a quick scan of the woodwind.org list, and only saw three teachers listed as from the Northern Virginia/Washington, DC area. I'm not a teacher myself nor have I taken a lesson in an embarrassingly long number of years, but I play a few times a week with many area band directors and music teachers, so I'll try to collect some names and throw them up on the board here for consideration (if that's OK, Mark/GBK).

I strongly recommend Chuck West out of Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond. A superb industry talent with a reputation to match for 40 years. As instructor, performer, mentor, and a first-rate gentlemen there's simply none finer outside the Beltway. v/r Ken

In your area I can recommend Ken Lee. He has a huge studio, so you just have to call and ask. He is located in the Vienna area, pretty close to 66. Good luck in the search.
