Elizabeth
DeMerritt Cobbs earliest recollections of music are of her
grandmother singing to her, and her mother, a concert pianist,
filling their house with beautiful music. Elizabeth had piano lessons
from age 5, beginning with her mother, and then with Francis Moore in
New York City. She majored in music at Connecticut College and at
Averett University. Afterwards, she did graduate coursework at
Hollins University.
Elizabeth believes
in the importance of scales, chords, cadences, and arpeggios in daily
practice. They are not only for exercising, but also understanding
the structure of the music as well as developing one's ear to the
sound of these elements. |
