INDIVIDUAL LESSONS

One to one tutoring with John Landor in NW8 or SE13, tailored to your particular needs, interests and pace. I can help with specific pieces, and prepare you for anything from rehearsing school ensembles to professional symphony concerts, as well as competitions and auditions.​​ I offer baton and rehearsal technique, score learning and memorisation, interpretation, early music, contemporary music, choral-orchestral conducting and more.  ​
