Bennett Cello

Just a shoutout to one of my former students, Lukas!

Welcome to Bennett Cello Studio! Here's a little bit about our founder, Anne Bennett:

Cellist Anne Bennett has both Bachelor and Master of Music Degrees with Honors in Cello Performance from New England Conservatory of Music. Anne has a great love of teaching. She believes that students learn differently, and she works to find the best way to teach and motivate each student individually.

Anne Bennett’s students have been selected for prestigious ensembles and festivals including Boston Youth Symphony Orchestras, New England Conservatory Youth Orchestras, MMEA Junior and Senior Festival Orchestras, Massachusetts All-State Orchestra, Boston Philharmonic Youth Symphony, Eastern Music Festival, and Aspen Music Festival.
