Claire Hogan-Gibbons
Cello, Piano
I have played the cello for over 45 years, enjoying being part of community orchestras. I look forward to playing in string ensembles with the Hume Con. I have taught cello at a music school and am pleased to be able to take up a teaching position at the Hume Con. I have taught piano since I was 15 in schools and private practice. I have also provided piano accompaniment extensively for exams and auditions.
I recently moved from the city to the country and am enjoying all that the regional area has to offer.
