Meet the Teacher
Clara McDonald
My passion is music education. I have nearly 25 years of combined private and classroom teaching experience and a B.A. in Music Education. I have directed, accompanied, and participated in choirs, bands, orchestras, worship teams, and handbell choirs. Over the years I have played for recitals, weddings, funerals, art shows, recordings, accompanied vocalists, given solo recitals, adjudicated competitions, and worked as the administrator for a conservatory of arts program. I opened Infusing Music Studios in 2015 where I teach private piano and flute lessons as well as rent space to other teachers of various instruments. We serve over 100 students each week from the Flagstaff and surrounding communities.

​In addition to making music of all kinds I enjoy running, cooking, knitting, the outdoors, homeschooling, cultivating friendships, watching movies, and traveling. (Oh, and did I mention that I like chocolate?)
​
I would love to help your child discover the amazing world of music!
