Featured Faculty
of the Month
Machelle McNeal
Piano
"I wanted to send you an email in regards to our wonderful experience at the Fairmount School of Music. My son and daughter have both taken piano lessons from Machelle McNeal. She is a wonderful, caring, and knowledgeable piano instructor. Both have enjoyed lessons, because they not only feel that they are learning, but because she makes it fun for them. Thank you for your referral." --Jennifer Chmiel
In addition to teaching at FSM, Ms Machelle also teaches piano lessons to college students at Ursuline College. With a solid background in classical piano, Machelle branched out and performed with her own jazz group for ten years. All of her students play on two recitals per year and are encouraged to memorize every piece.
