Alison Walker

I have graduated from the Royal College of Music with a Bachelor of Music (Hons) and now work as a Teaching Assistant at Redwood Park School. I have recently started teaching at King Edward VI School in Southampton as a Visiting Music Teacher.

I am a talented and accomplished horn graduate with a solid background in music. I am dedicated and well organised player who thrives on a challenge who is both a skilled ensemble and orchestral player. I became interested in dancing at the age of three and joined a dance school, this allowed me to start developing my musical skills and working in a team. At the age of seven I took up the piano, and this was followed a year later with the horn.

I studied at the Royal College of Music with Tim Jones, John Ryan, and Jeffery Bryant. I have also had classes with Nigel Black, Simon Rayner and Stefan Dhor. I also went to Chethams School of Music where I studied with Lizzie Davis and Julian Plummer.

I offer students engaging, individually catered lesson with a grounding in technique and theory, and a emphasis on developing personal musicality.

Timings of lessons can be flexible to fit around school or work and would preferably be at the students home. Having also worked in schools teaching and assisting with workshops I can also offer group lessons.

​

I also play with orchestras in the Hampshire area such as Wessex Sinfonietta, Bournemouth Philharmonic Society,  Lymmington Choral Society, King Edward VI school concerts, Compton and Shawford Festival Choir.
