Richard Li's Cello Studio
About
My job for any student is to help cater to the student's individual goal while also making learning the cello as painless as possible. When I work with a student, I want the student to achieve the following concepts: 1. Setup. Cellists will have good posture and be able to make cello playing feel easy. 2. Tone. Every sound a cellist plays should come from a good sound. 3. Intonation/Music Reading. Every cellist has the ability to play in tune. In order to do that, they will become fluent in reading music. 4. Musicality. The fun part of music making is when they are able to express music with ideas.
Cello playing is daunting and can seem impossible at times, but with patience and effort, I can help you reach your goals.

Richard was an amazing teacher and helped me realize how much I love cello! He was always well prepared and created a great plan for us to follow before upcoming performances/auditions. He also had a very nice dog!
