Private Music Teacher in Vallejo. In addition to traditional styles, I have created my own approach to playing piano and encourage students to step away from the books to develop a more creative and improvisational technique. I also give presentations at schools and libraries about the meaning of music in life.

I graduated from UCLA with a degree in Music and have enjoyed teaching private piano lessons to all ages and levels in Santa Rosa since 1985. I currently specialize in adult students either returning to piano lessons or beginning for the first time. I do believe that piano lessons should be enjoyable. After all, the term is "play" the piano!
Scarlett Hepworth teaches adults and young people 13 and over to sing with confidence, skill, and authenticity. A well-known San Francisco area actress, Scarlett brings to her studio a knowledge of performer's "tricks of the trade," as well as years of experience as a music director, accompanist, composer, and musical theater performing artist. One-hour lessons are fun, informative, and non-threatening. Many students have gone on to careers in the theater; but Scarlett also caters to people returning to singing after many years, who just want to croon a tune at the piano bar, sing at a wedding, or learn those opera arias they've always loved. Though Scarlett is anchored in musical theater, she is familiar with many genres: classical, jazz and pop standards, gospel, folk, British music hall, and sacred song. She owns thousands of pieces of sheet music and is an expert piano accompanist. Let Scarlett help you safely develop a sound singing technique and a fabulous repertoire.

Music and Movement for newborns through 7 years with the grownups who love them! Music Together is an internationally recognized early childhood music and movement program for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, kindergarteners, and the adults who love them. First offered to the public in 1987, it pioneered the concept of a research-based, developmentally appropriate early childhood music curriculum that strongly emphasizes and facilitates adult involvement. Music Together classes are based on the recognition that all children are musical. All children can learn to sing in tune, keep a beat, and participate with confidence in the music of our culture, provided that their early environment supports such learning.
