John Lagerquist - Master Teacher
Several
years ago, I began to take voice lessons, in
order to become clearer in my
mind about the nature of sound, as opposed to the
nature of the flute. I have had the
most exciting results of my teaching career,
incorporating what I have learned into
private and group flute lessons.
Talking
about sound is often said to be just too tricky,
too subjective. I becomes
a good deal less intimidating when considered as
a goal for its own sake, rather
than an appendage to musical interpretation.
Singing
has taught me how to avoid the tyranny of the
printed page. What one must
do to improve sound can not be found there. Sound
comes from your brain and
no where else!
I have
developed an effective style of approaching this
task that is accessible to a broad range of
experience and age. If this sounds intriguing, I
would love to talk to you about working privately
or with your club or studio.
The
sound approach to musicianship, is a great
antidote for the staleness that sets in from too
much determined but misguided practice.
My rate
for master teaching is $75 (U.S. dollars) per
hour plus negotiated fee for travel time and
expenses.
