When you slow down and work some basics on some easier music, your left hand will coordinate with your right and your playing will become cleaner very quickly. This will bring you some confidence so that you can then go out into the world and share your music with friends and family.

Wondering how to make cello playing fun again?
When you get out of classical perfectionism and you start to play some other genres of music regularly, you will realize that you already have a musical voice and you will be intrigued with finding it.
Hi. I'm Marcie Brown and I'm the Cello Guru.
I help adult cellists to find their own unique voice so they can play with joy, confidence and ease.
What Did I learn from Working with the following Artists?
Luciano Pavarotti, Itzak Perlman, Jaco Pastorius, Ray Charles, Andrea Bocelli, Cirque du Soleil...
I learned that in order to be a thriving musician, you need to live in breakthrough. To follow the unbeaten path. To jump on opportunities that light you up. To find the things in life that make you feel good and cherish them. To find your own unique voice, and to develop it every day. Cello Guru programs include classical music studies and also fun adventurer studies. So you will find expertise and mastery from both angles. By playing the music that you love, and searching out your own true creative and musical voice to play it. Let us help you with that! When you find your own true voice, you will become a smarter, happier musician and human. Every time.
Total Cello Immersion is my 6 Month cello Program
Aspiring Adult Cellists will find connection here.
In the Total Cello Immersion Program, you will find a supportive community of like minded peers to support you, and you will get expert cello instruction regularly. You will learn the skill of performing through weekly studio class participation. In the online video courses, you will be working through instructional videos of both classical Suzuki pieces and pop and jazz improvisation repertoire. Our psychological Cello Guru Concept videos will help you to move through constant musical growth with daily inspiration, expertise and confidence. By the end of the 6 month program, you will be a happier, healthier, more musical and more expressive cellist who understands the value of your own personal cello playing in the world and exactly what steps to take every day to stay in musical transformation.
