One of the basic instruments of the woodwind family, the clarinet has brought us the music of the classical masters, the swing tunes of the 1940s and the cool melodies of jazz.
We recommend students be 8 years old to start clarinet lessons. We also welcome adult students.
Weekly lessons are available in 30-minute, 45-minute and 60-minute durations. All lessons are taught in our education facilities at First Baptist Church of Duluth, in Duluth, GA.
Need help in purchasing a clarinet? Our teacher will be glad to advise you in purchasing an appropriate student instrument.
