CELTIC MUSIC TUTOR PORTLAND FREE
If you are interested in more details about my private studio or would like to book me, feel free to send me a message! Read LessĬynthia Swenson is an experienced cello teacher and performer, recently moved up to Port Orchard from the San Francisco area. I have had the privilege of working with students of all ages, skill levels, and identities. I work with my students to reach whatever goals we may have set together, whether that is polishing their skills in a specific genre, or focusing on sustainable technique and navigating changes in voice or a growing body. My teaching philosophy for both bass and voice is that every student is an individual and their instruments are as unique as they are. In addition to providing coaching for Bass and Voice, I also tutor in music theory and consult on songwriting and composition/orchestration. I have been teaching a variety of instruments privately for over twelve years and have enjoyed giving both individual lessons and coaching sectionals as well as being part of masterclasses and workshops for bands and small ensembles. Also, I am very happy to be household staff to the most exquisite of Fur Beasts (see pictures here). Music has a tendency to permeate everything in my life, but when I am not performing, teaching, composing, arranging, or practicing, I enjoy living into my viking domesticity and can frequently be found cooking, sewing, spinning yarn, SCUBA diving, or studying and practicing herbalism. Striving for holistic and consummate musicianship happily also impacts me as an actor and as a teacher. Because of this, I have always been happiest when I can look at a gig holistically, letting my musical experiences inform each other across genre lines. But I love singing funk any day of the week! I was raised on a diverse musical diet, frequently consuming Beethoven, Rush, Miles Davis, Janis Joplin, Queen, Schostakovitch, and Leonard Cohen in the same day. As a bassist, I have performed everything from orchestral music to circus/cabaret to dive bar rock and as a vocalist, I have trained in the operatic, jazz, and musical theatre genres.
