Learn. Perform. Record.
Another consideration is that woodwind instruments must be held and some
woodwinds (such as the saxophone) are quite large and unsuited to the very young
beginner. A suitable age to begin lessons on woodwinds is at least 9 or 10 years old.
We currently offer flute, clarinet and saxophone lessons. RCM curriculum is
available for these instruments, but if you are currently playing in a school band or
ensemble and would like assistance with your studies there, we can assist you in that
regard as well.
The Stephan Tan School of Music also offers a woodwind ensemble program in which
students may prepare pieces in groups of 3-5 for performances in concerts or recitals.

Woodwinds
The production of sound through a woodwind
instrument involves the breath of the performer.
Therefore, we would not generally recommend the
study of woodwinds for very young beginners as
producing a sufficient amount of breath to achieve
proper tone can be laborious.
