About Shelley
I graduated from the University of Cape Town and was then awarded a prestigious Swiss Government Scholarship to study at the Geneva Conservatoire Switzerland, before continuing at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London. My teachers have included Oliver de Groote, Thomas Friedli, Walter Boeykens, Thea King and Michael Whight. I won the Oudermeester competition for wind instruments, the Natal 75th Anniversary Prize for orchestral instruments and the wind category of the ATKV FORTE competition in South Africa and was a woodwind finalist in the Royal Overseas League Competition in London. I have freelanced with the Natal Philharmonic Orchestra, the Cape Town Symphony Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, London and BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestras, amongst others. I’ve given numerous solo and chamber music concerts in South Africa, Europe and Canada, also giving concerto appearances with all the major symphony orchestras in South Africa and chamber music concerts in the Demetria and Sani international festivals in Greece, Aberdeen chamber music concerts and Piano Week international festival and summer school. UK performances have included concerts in the Barbican and Royal Festival Hall. I’ve been broadcast by BBC Radio 3 with Leto Ensemble and recorded an album with Ensemble Burletta on Toccato Classics record label, this received glowing reviews in Gramophone Magazine.

-It is very rewarding for me to use my skills with children and adults in creative ways that will bring out each individual's musical and technical potential. -As an expressive player I try to share my experience of music with my students and hope to instil in my students the joy I experience in music making. -I consider myself to be a considerate and intuitive teacher and with this am able to identify and understand the musical/technical obstacles a child might have, and find ways of helping children and adults find their own connection to musical expression. -Students achieve excellent results and many distinctions in ABRSM and TRINITY exams. -Students are encouraged to perform in concerts to inspire confidence.

I am privileged to regularly work and perform with Shelley. She brings to teaching her wonderful musicianship, a wealth of experience, imagination and a huge enthusiasm for and love of music.
Having, very much in my later years, decided to try and play the clarinet and having rented one, I set about looking for a teacher. In one of my best ever internet searches I found Shelley. Right from the outset she has been kind and above all encouraging and patient. Not only has she been an exceptional teacher, she has also awakened my then dormant interest in music in general. I always look forward to lessons with eager anticipation and joy. Thank you Shelley.
Shelley is an outstanding clarinetist, teacher and person and she would always have my very highest recommendation. She's one of the greatest artists I have ever worked with and she is so passionate about everything she does. Shelley is incredibly patient and kind, and is brilliant at teaching both adults and children. She has my strongest recommendation and is a true gem.
Shelley is a truly outstanding clarinetist, teacher and person - I would always recommend her in the very highest possible way and she’s one of the best artists I’ve even worked with. She is incredibly patient and kind with both adults and children and she is so passionate about everything she does. I couldn’t recommend Shelley more - she’s an absolute gem.
I have known Shelley for 8 years now, as a friend and musical colleague. She is a fabulously accomplished clarinettist, and her musical insights are always an inspiration. When teaching she teaches the whole person, giving the pupil both an excellent technique and confidence in their self, facilitating the emergence of their innate musicality. I absolutely recommend Shelley for any level of clarinet tuition.
I have known Shelley for many years. Shelley and I studied music together and have remained in touch every since. She is an exceptionally gifted musician and teacher. She works with people of all ages but has a particular affinity for working with the young. Shelley's enthusiasm and passion for her craft are an inspiration! She has found the perfect balance between musicality and technique.
An exquisite player and a wonderful , warm and inspiring teacher . Highly recommended .
