Sophie Creutz
Woodwinds
Sophie holds degrees in clarinet performance and philosophy from Northwestern University. She plays and teaches saxophone, clarinet, and piano. Clarinet and sax lessons aim to solidify embouchure and voicing while perfecting articulation and phrasing. This work is done through scales, etudes, and solo works.
"I design my lessons with wisdom and creativity in order to familiarize the student with the essentials of the instrument and of music theory while encouraging personal expression and interpretation. I draw from multiple techniques and practices in order to create a comprehensive approach to the instrument. Some of these include the Alexander Technique, the Feldenkrais method, yoga, positive thinking and goal setting, and meditative practices."
