About
In 2016, I received my Bachelor's Degree from the State Conservatory of Uzbekistan in Clarinet Performance and Master's Degree from the University of Northern Iowa in 2019. During my studies at the State Conservatory of Uzbekistan and University of Northern Iowa, I played in Northern Iowa Symphonic Orchestra, Symphonic Orchestra of Uzbekistan, Wind Ensembles, different types of ensembles, and conducted Wind Orchestra and Clarinet Choir. In my career, I have performed many recitals as a soloist and with orchestra. In 2018, I was a winner of Concerto Competition at the University of Iowa and played Françaix Clarinet Concerto with the Northern Iowa.
I have been teaching clarinet professionally for 6 years. I have taught students from beginners to advanced. My teaching experience is based on fundamental knowledge and musical expression. Seeing making the progress of a student makes me feel happy and gives me inspiration to reach more with the students. I encourage students being good on their instruments because it has role not only for students' development, but also they can be great musicians and performers who will travel around the world.
I started to play piano when I was 8 years old. During my studies at the Specialized Music School, I started to learn on both clarinet and piano instruments. In the school, I learned fundamental knowledges and had experiences performing classical intermediate pieces on piano. At the State Conservatory of Uzbekistan, I played piano for two years and experienced with advanced classical pieces. Since 2014, I have been teaching piano for students who just start to play piano from age 7 from beginners to advanced level. My teaching experience is based on fundamental knowledge and musical expression.
For clarinet players, it is important to have correct hand position, embouchure, tonguing, and other fundamental knowledges. With students who are just beginning to learn clarinet, I start a Russian book called "Clarinet School" by S. Rozanov and "Clarinet Studies" by A. McCandless. For improvement technique, I use H. Klose's and C. Rose's etude books. When a student has enough experience, we study different types of repertoire in various genres such as classical, romantic, contemporary music. For piano students who just started to learn, I use books by Faber, Alfred, and Nikolaev.
