Is it really possible?

Brittany Platt Gardner began her cello studies at the age of eight after receiving a cello as a birthday present.

An avid teacher and sought-after clinician and speaker, Ms. Gardner finds great joy in the study, sharing, and teaching of music to children and their families. Her book “This Will Help You Grow: Advice & Encouragement for Suzuki Parents” (available on Amazon.com) has been warmly received by readers from Singapore to Australia, to the United States.

Ms. Gardner recently completed an 11-year tenure at the Gifted Music School, where she served as the school’s Suzuki Program Coordinator. She currently serves on the board of Intermountain Suzuki String Institute and, in addition to her studio, codirects the Amichevoli Cello Choir with Kelly McConkie Stewart and maintains an active performing career, appearing with such groups as the Utah Symphony, Sinfonia Salt Lake, The Orchestra at Temple Square, and others.

Ms Gardner holds a Master of Music degree from the University of Michigan and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Performance from the joint degree program between Case Western Reserve University and the Cleveland Institute of Music.
