music lessons liverpoolWelcome to my site! My name is Emma L.M. Sweeney and I teach music lessons in Liverpool, L15, and online.

Along with 27yrs teaching experience, I am a professional session singer and songwriter, and work with all sorts of musicians, from beginner to advanced, and from children (age 6+) to adults.

I hold a current, valid Enhanced DBS, I am fully-insured, and I am a Musicians Union member.

I learned Classical Violin with Ms Winifred Genin of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra in the 80s and 90s and studied with the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM). I then went on to learn several other instruments. My specialities are voice & strings, but I also play piano, guitar, trombone, viola, cello, double bass (and a tiny bit of clarinet!).

If you or your child wish to study music exams, we can do them with the ABRSM or Trinity College. You can combine different subjects in your music lesson, e.g. singing students might choose to learn some piano or guitar, too, or add music theory study.

SINGING

I help singing students learn vocal technique and develop their voices, playing musicians to develop their ability, and I coach singers in-studio while recording and pre- and post-tours to balance, strengthen and condition the voice.
