Welcome to
Hello, welcome to Cello Lessons Bristol. My name is Kristina Keller and I offer professional cello lessons to students of all ages and abilities in Bristol and surrounding areas.
I have been playing and teaching the cello for over the last 20 years and I love what I do. I like to make sure the lessons I offer are thorough and detailed but all the while maintaining a relaxed and comfortable learning environment.
Learning the cello, or really any instrument for that matter, is something I believe should be a fun experience and as such I will always do my best to the keep the lessons engaging so you can enjoy the journey as we progress and develop on your cello playing skills.
Get in touch to find out more.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch for more information on booking your first Cello lesson with me.
I have been playing and teaching the cello for over 20 years and I am still as passionate about it today as I was when I first started. I teach students from the ages 5+ and am happy to work with any student. No matter how much previous playing experience you may or may not have, all students are welcome to take lessons with me.
Over the years I have studied and played in multiple musical projects and have studied music from so many different artists and styles. I understand we all want and love different things about music so I take pride in being able to offer flexible lessons that can cater to all different styles and genres of music. Whatever you need the lessons are tailored to you and your specific musical goals.
Lessons are pay-as-you-go, weekly, fortnightly or as suits you.
Over the years I have worked with students of all ages and skill levels. I am happy to work with students on any level. No matter if you are a beginner, or if you have been playing for years and just want to get that bit better or focus on a certain technique, anyone is welcome.
As well as teaching the Cello I also teach vocals and singing lessons too. I have helped and supported many students by providing them with the relevant knowledge and skills they need to go on and to complete their graded exams. These graded exams can be a great way to help you in to the next level of music education such as colleges and universities.
Not only do I offer one to one lessons but I also teach in high schools in the local area too so I am comfortable working with children, young adults or adults too of course! For those students wanting to go on through their graded exams I will support and provide you with all you'll need and have had great success putting previous students through those exams.
I will always take great care to ensure that my lessons are fun and that you enjoy our time together in the lessons. I will always take the time to get to know you personally and will do my best to offer insight and song choices that suit you and the music that you love. I am also happy to provide support an opinions when it comes to purchasing your first instrument or if you're looking to upgrade.
The lessons I offer are well rounded and will provide you with all the necessary foundations and fundamentals you would need to become a solid and fluent Cello player. I like to offer a fine balance between practical skills and musical theory in my lessons too. I think both things play an important role in growing and developing as an all round musician.
I have experience with advanced students who are already rather established but I have been able to assist and help them to develop their skills to that next level. No matter what stage of your playing journey you are at, together we can help develop your weaknesses and push you to that next level of playing.
As a Cello is often played as part of an ensemble or larger group, many students worry and can feel uncomfortable when playing with others. In my lessons I'll make sure to encourage that we play together and with others to help boost you confidence for live performances and playing as part of orchestras or ensembles.
Here is a list of local music stores you can try in Bristol for all your Cello needs.
