Thinking about music lessons?

Perhaps you’re just getting started on your instrument and want to lay a solid foundation. Or, maybe you’ve been playing for years and want to improve your technique and expand your repertoire. In either case, I would be glad to help!

I’ve been teaching for over 25 years and have had the pleasure of helping students at all levels pursue and reach their musical goals. Lessons can be a great way to begin your musical journey under the mentorship of an insightful teacher or refine your playing with recommendations from a skilled performer. I can meet you wherever you’re at and develop a personalized learning plan that works best for you.

Testimonials from students:

“Eliot is one of the best uilleann pipers in the world, and yet is humble and down to earth. His knowledge of Irish music, music theory, and his ability to teach to any level of player makes Eliot a great resource when learning. I absolutely recommend Eliot if you are a beginner wanting to play the uilleann pipes, or if you are a veteran player who wants to expand your knowledge.” - John Ingman (uilleann pipes)

“Eliot is an incredibly patient and insightful teacher.” - Patrick Phillips (flute & tin whistle)

“I am so fortunate on so many levels that I get to have you as an Instructor. Thank you for taking the time and care to elaborate, and for the encouragement. It’s helpful to hear how it often works with learning and helps me set appropriate expectations. I’ve mentioned I don’t want to get older and regret missing out on the joy of working toward the potential I have. I am definitely learning a lot from you, and am very pleased that I’m already noticing progress. I’m excited to continue to learn and discover how to improve and “correct” old habits and move toward what will help me play well.” - Kris Campbell (fiddle)
