Ways To Learn With Adrian

At the heart of everything we offer is a commitment to inclusive, high-quality music education. From individual lessons to group programs, chamber coaching, and community ensembles, our services are designed to support learners of all ages and backgrounds in a welcoming, inspiring environment.

Violin Lessons

Whether you're just starting your musical journey or looking to refine your skills, Adrian offers tailored violin lessons for students of all ages and experience levels. Lessons are available in 30, 45, or 60-minute sessions to suit your goals and schedule. The option for online tutoring is also available.

The violin is a versatile and expressive instrument, known for its rich tone and ability to convey deep emotion. Under Adrian’s guidance, students develop strong technical foundations, musical confidence, and a love for creative exploration—all within a supportive, student-centred environment.

Viola Lessons

Discover the warm, resonant voice of the viola with lessons tailored to your individual goals and experience. Adrian offers 30, 45, or 60-minute sessions designed for students of all levels—from beginners to advancing players. The option for online tutoring is also available.

Often celebrated for its rich, mellow tone, the viola plays a vital role in both solo and ensemble music. With Adrian’s expert guidance, students build strong technique, musical expression, and confidence in a supportive, encouraging environment that values creativity and growth.

Group Lessons

Group lessons offer a fun, collaborative way to learn and grow as a musician. Designed for students of similar levels, these sessions foster teamwork, listening skills, and ensemble awareness—all essential parts of becoming a well-rounded player.

In a supportive group environment, students build confidence, stay motivated through shared progress, and experience the joy of making music together. Group lessons are a great complement to individual study or a wonderful entry point for those new to violin or viola. The option for online tutoring is also available.

Family Lessons

Family lessons offer a wonderful way for parents, siblings, or caregivers to learn music together in a fun, supportive setting. Similar to group lessons, these sessions are tailored to suit all participating family members, regardless of age or experience.

What better way to support your child's learning than by joining them on their musical journey? Shared lessons encourage connection, strengthen musical understanding at home, and create meaningful memories through making music together. The option for online tutoring is also available.

Chamber Coaching

Chamber music is written for small ensembles—typically two to five players—where each musician plays an individual part. It’s a deeply collaborative form of music-making that relies on listening, communication, and shared interpretation.

Chamber coaching is designed for pre-formed groups looking to refine their ensemble playing. Through guided sessions, groups receive expert feedback on technique, balance, musical expression, and ensemble cohesion—helping them perform with greater confidence, clarity, and connection.

Killalea Strings

Killalea Strings is a vibrant community group for adult string players across the Illawarra, Southern Highlands, and Shoalhaven. Open to amateur to semi-professional musicians, the group offers a supportive space to grow skills, make music together, and connect through shared artistry.

Ensemble playing builds confidence, sharpens listening skills, and fosters a strong sense of musical community. Killalea Strings is open to participants aged 18 and over.

Adrian is an exceptional musician and educator whose passion for teaching shines through in every lesson. His thoughtful, student-focused approach ensures that both children and adults feel supported, inspired, and continually challenged. With a warm, approachable presence and a deep understanding of music, Adrian brings out the very best in his students, making learning both meaningful and motivating.
