I am an adult "re-learner"...I picked up the clarinet again last year after a 25 yr. hiatus and am pleased with my re-learning progress. However, I'm at the point that I'm confident and serious enough that I want to seek out a private instructor. The style of music I like to play and would like to develop proficiency in is Trad jazz and, in general, music from the 1920s-40s.
What I am looking for in an instructor: an instructor who appreciates this kind of music (I've found a few that aren't) and is tolerant of new-old beginners.
Any recommendations (preferably posted to me via private e-mail) on instructors in the Baltimore, MD/Howard County area?
Kind regards,
Joe

Ben is in Annapolis, a bit of a drive. Try Kyle Coughlin. http://www.kylecoughlin.com/
Good luck! Most teachers I know enjoy teaching adult re-beginners. Welcome to the community.

Thank you all very much...I'll give Kyle Coughlin a call. Annapolis is indeed a bit far for me (~40min).
Regards,
CJ
