Music Tuition
Please also note Therese is not taking on new private students for the new academic year as she is at capacity. Contact Cois na hAbhna for traditional music classes & Clare Music Makers for classical.
"I worked with Therese during a MasterClass as part of her Performance Masters in University of Limerick. I first encountered her as a talented teenager at various workshops such as the Corofin Trad Festival. The fact that she is regularly invited to teach at summer schools such as Scoil Samhraidh Willie Clancy is testament to how highly she is regarded by music aficionados."

Therese is a very experienced music teacher specialising in Traditional Irish Fiddle and Singing.
Fiddle
Therese's goal is to help students achieve their very best standard of fiddle playing. She teaches a rounded musical education, incorporating music theory and lots of technique exercises, as well as teaching traditional tunes.
Singing/Voice Training
Therese is very passionate about vocal heath and incorporates a lot of technique (breathing/vocal) into her classes, as appropriate for the age group. Therese is trained in Classical, Musical Theatre, Traditional, Sean Nós and Choral singing.
Therese puts a huge amount of work into preparing lessons that will help students to reach high standards of musicianship, which is reflected in many of Therese's students achieving very high grades, and higher achiever awards in Comhaltas SCT examinations and Royal Irish Academy of Music examinations but it is also important to remember that music is about much more than exams and competitions, it is about enjoying the music and having fun.
