This list is provided by the governing board of the Vail Youth Symphony. It is by no means comprehensive, but is simply a list of local instructors with whom we are familiar. Other private teacher lists can be found at local music stores, or you can ask your school music teacher for a recommendation. Locations, prices, and availability can be determined by contacting the teachers.
