Private Lessons

Large ensemble rehearsals, by nature, limit the ability of any director to interact with students and address their individual skills. Though not required, only the students who take advantage of private instruction will fully meet their potential. It is no coincidence that the majority of students in Wind Ensemble, or who make the HCPSS GT and Maryland All-State ensembles, study with great private teachers. Below is a list of some teachers with whom students at AHS have had great success. This is not a complete list and many more great teachers in the area are available.
