Stephanie Claussen

I teach beginning-intermediate lever and pedal harp. I have a background in both classical harp (French/Grandjany method) and Celtic harp. I require students to read music, but also teach playing from lead sheets, improvising left hand accompaniments, and learning a tune by ear every once in a long while. Lessons usually include several pieces, an exercise and perhaps a brief theory lesson (on topics like key signatures, time signatures, chord progressions, or inversions.)
