Private Tuition
Peelman Academy of Music is dedicated to providing exceptional cello and double bass lessons for students of all ages. Our teaching is grounded in extensive experience from both Europe and Australia.
We focus on developing your musicianship through a deep enhancement of your technical skills on the cello or double bass. Our approach begins with you as an individual. We take the time to understand your aspirations, whether you’re aiming for a professional career, looking to play in a community orchestra, or simply want to enjoy music as a relaxing hobby. Whatever your goals, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
Our lessons are conducted in a relaxed atmosphere infused with humour, as we believe that learning music should be enjoyable. Our mission is to help anyone with a passion for the cello or double bass reach their highest potential.
In the future, we plan to expand our offerings to include other instruments.
Our instructors are not only experienced teachers but also accomplished performing artists, ensuring you receive guidance rooted in real-world experience. Refer back to our website for upcoming projects including concerts, performances, and master classes!
We offer lessons for both cello and double bass, with a focus on consistent skill development through weekly sessions over a full term.
For adults balancing work and family commitments, we recommend weekly lessons, but we’re open to discussing alternative options.
