Learn new skills at Celestino Music School

With over 30 years of experience in the music industry, I am a Cairns based performer and teacher possessing considerable expertise with a wide variety of wind instruments. 

Holding a Bachelor of Pan Flute and performance major from the Queensland Conservatorium of Music at Griffith University and a Post Graduate Certificate in Music Education from the Australian Catholic University, I have considerable experience educating and entertaining at a wide range of venues, including State schools, museums, libraries, community centres and occasionally, performing on the big stage at many events throughout Australia and overseas. Most recently, I was a Recreational Therapist at the Cairns Hospital. 

I can develop a relational platform as a basis for learning and teaching as I have extensive experience in managing a team of musicians. I have done this with each band that I have directed, working and respectfully and effectively with professionals and amateurs from a variety of heritages, ages, experience levels and music tradition. Moreover, I have been the music leader of small ensembles including: Jazz Bossa Nova, World Music and Latin jazz at the Conservatorium Griffith University and participated in the choir.

My teaching style is patient specially with new students. no prior instruction necessary.
