Professional Tuba Instruction in South Carolina

Post by TubaofGilman »

Looking for professional tuba instruction. I've tried YouTube, but there is nothing like face to face interaction. I'm struggling to progress; I need a professional ear.

Where is SC? Have you contacted the local symphonies, universities, or maybe the local military band (Ft. Jackson)?

If the other ideas don't pan out, do a little shopping and ask around:

Without knowing where you are located:

John Sizemore, located in Spartanburg/Greenville area, teaches at North Greenville University and SC Governor's School

Ron Davis, USC in Columbia

John Holloway, Spartanburg Phil teaches at Converse College

Dan Turner, Bob Jones University in Greenville

Matt Anderson, located in Greenville, teaches at Clemson University

Mark Britt, Furman University (I filled in for Mark the past 7 years, he's back at it and a great teacher)

and I'm sure I've left out a slew of other folks....

In addition to the good list posted above, I would also add Dr. Douglas Black at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, SC https://www.winthrop.edu/cvpa/faculty/d ... x?id=36804" target="_blank

and Dr. Joanna Hersey at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, which is just a few minutes north of the North Carolina-South Carolina border, just off Interstate 95.

Rock Hill is a long way from Pawley's Island. You might check at Coastal Carolina or I'm sure there would be somebody in Charleston.

If anyone is interested in amateur tuba instruction in the DC metro area, look me up.

I also offer group lessons!!
I am committed to the advancement of civil rights, minus the Marxist intimidation and thuggery of BLM.
