David L. Benjamin Music Studio

Teaching Cape Ann’s best music students for over thirty years!

Teaching

I teach instrumental basics, using multiple resources including lesson books; scale studies; Pop songs; duets; classical repertoire; play along CDs; improvisation studies and more.

Students will learn fundamental skills for their instrument and develop the technique needed to become life-long performers.

Students will be required to practice lesson material daily and should perform regularly in a casual setting.

Adult students are sometimes encouraged to have a lesson every two weeks rather than weekly. This gives the opportunity to prepare assignments in a pressure-free setting.
