Flute and Saxophone Lessons across Sussex

Discover and Be offer flute and saxophone tuition to children and adult learners across East and West Sussex. We have tutors in many areas including Haywards Heath, Burgess Hill, Cuckfield, Uckfield, and more.  

Whether you or your child aspires to play the flute in an orchestra or would like to learn how to play pop songs on the saxophone, we can help!  We offer bespoke lessons, tailored to meet the needs and requirements of your child, whatever his or her age and ability. We also offer saxophone and flute lessons for grown ups of all ages!

Our flute and saxophone teachers are able to train and prepare pupils who wish to embark on ABRSM graded exams. We also work with adults, teens and children who prefer a less formal approach to learning the flute and saxophone as well as the basic elements of music. All Discover & Be tutors are DBS/CRB checked.

Saxophone

The saxophone is a hugely versatile instrument and one that people can come to at any age. The saxophone is just as happy in a rock band as it is in a jazz, soul or funk band. In fact, there are very few types of music the mighty saxophone isn’t at home with and it is because of this that saxophone lessons are so popular.

We are very excited to be able to offer saxophone lessons for anyone in Haywards Heath, Burgess Hill, Crawley and other Sussex locations.

Flute

Flute lessons are tailored to meet the needs and requirements of you or your child, from beginners to advanced players. The flute is a beautiful and flexible instrument.

  • Composition and improvisation

  • Technique

  • Sight-reading and notation

  • Aural training

  • Music history

  • Listening

  • Preparation for performances and ABRSM exams

Frequently asked questions

How do the flute or saxophone lessons work?

The first lesson is very much geared around the teacher getting to know the student and what level and type of tuition they prefer or need. From there they will recommend the books and support needed to move forward. Once the tuition is ongoing, each lesson will be tailored to the pupil. In some cases, this means shorter, more fun-focused teaching and for others it may mean practice time or playing along with other instruments and learning music theory. 

Do you have to own a flute?

Don’t worry! We can recommend the best places to hire instruments.  Some parents prefer to do this initially until they are sure that their child is ready to commit fully to the instrument. At this point, we can offer help in choosing your first flute.

How will I know how my child’s music lessons are progressing?

Our teachers are very happy to offer ongoing feedback on the progress of a child. As well as this we welcome contact and feedback from parents on how they feel the tuition is going. We also use a practice diary system where notes can be made on progress of learning challenges. 

How long are flute or saxophone lessons?

The length of lessons on both the flute or saxophone vary depending on the age of the pupil (and, as such, so do the fees for lessons).
