Emma studied music at Sussex University and continued her interest in Baroque music as a post-graduate at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London. As a professional musician and composer, she has contributed to a number of film, television and theatre projects as well as performing in many concerts around the UK as both a cellist and a recorder player.

Emma has been teaching cello and recorders to individuals and groups of all ages for over thirty-five years. Based in York for the last twenty years and previously in London, she teaches in several independent schools and privately. In addition to teaching in person, she is also now able to teach pupils through video calling.

Not everyone approaches music with confidence, even if they have a talent and enthusiasm that needs to be nurtured. Emma has particular experience and strengths with young people that benefit from a little more patience and encouragement. She has helped many pupils overcome their nervousness and grow into fine musicians.
