Sheet music as well!
Back in 1974, Sheila wrote "The Old Sea Dog"
a grade 3 piece for double bass with piano
accompaniment. This piece has been chosen
by the ABRSM for the Grade 3 Double Bass
examination. Rather then buy the whole
book,

Naturally, Sheila has many musical credentials
but also, full teaching qualifications. You can read what Sheila's
students say about her and much more,
here.
Apart from giving private lessons in her own home,
Sheila teaches for Worcester Youth Music in various
schools in the Worcester, Pershore and Evesham areas. She also teaches
in Private Schools including The King's School,
Worcester.
Children attending
these schools have the opportunity to benefit from
expert one-to-one tuition in Cello, Double Bass, Piano
and Theory of Music. A list of the schools Sheila
visits and the area she teaches in can be found
here.
Sheila is skilled at bringing her
students up to grade level and many pupils have enjoyed
remarkable success in ABRSM (Associated Board of the
Royal Schools of Music) musical grade examinations.
However, this is not to say examinations are a
requirement - far from it. Many of Sheila's pupils have
no intention of taking the route to a musical
qualification but play entirely for their own, and
others' enjoyment.
As a practising musician, Sheila is Principal Cellist with the
Chandos Symphony Orchestra,
she plays chamber music
regularly with
Midsummer Music at weddings and
celebrations around Worcestershire and regularly plays
organ for services in many churches in the
county. You can listen to some examples of
Sheila's musical skills
here.
If you are looking for musical tuition (at any age
and any stage of learning from total beginner to Grade
Eight) a chat
with Sheila costs nothing and could be the best thing
you've done.
Sheila can also introduce you to local groups with
whom you can play, share your love of
music and all the many social aspects of making music
together. With her long experience of music in
Worcestershire, Sheila is a mine of information about
local musical groups and orchestras.
