Sarah Tuck (faculty, USD Music Program & member, San Diego Symphony)

From past Festival participants:
  • So inventive! I love the way she arranged the Rose piece. Sarah is a wonderful, encouraging teacher as well; I particularly enjoyed the session we had on Baroque phrasing and nuance.
  • As a Flutist myself, it was an honor to play with Sarah. She gave me confidence and helped us interpret the piece thoughtfuly.
  • She's one of the highlights of the festival for me!
