Review:

Bassoon Instructor

Kristilyn has instructed my son over the last two years in bassoon technique, performance and sound. He began lessons with her his junior year of high school and has continued them into college. She has individualized lessons tailored to his music needs, upcoming auditions and goals, and she has mentored and encouraged him, showing her readiness to help him advance to his potential as a musician as well as being understanding while promoting a strong work ethic. I highly recommend Kristilyn as an instructor. Linda Elliott wrote on Thu, 16 Apr 2015

    Kristilyn Ohio State University

    Kristilyn was my first DMA student at OSU. She had studied with me in high school and for two years of her undergraduate degree in Houston, Texas. I was delighted to work with Kristilyn as a doctoral candidate. She is responsible, kind and conducts her music career with a great deal of integrity. The undergraduate students thoroughly enjoyed their lessons with her and she did a wonderful job with the methods bassoon class. I recommend her without reservation. Karen J.
