Liam Murphy's Profile

Background:

My name is Liam, I am an experienced, skilled, and enthusiastic online clarinet teacher from Australia. As a musician/performer, I have held contract clarinet positions with orchestras around the world, from the Sydney Symphony Orchestra in Australia to the Cemal Resit Rey Salonu in Turkey. In addition, I held the position of principal Eb Clarinet with the Royal Australian Air Force Band from 2014-2021. As a teacher, I have maintained a busy private teaching studio since 2011, teaching clarinet, saxophone, flute, and, oddly enough, Ancient Greek! I completed a BA in Classics and Archaeology and DipMus in Clarinet Performace at the University of Melbourne in 2013. Nowadays, I live in Antalya, Turkey, with my wife and two kids, teaching clarinet online as my full-time job :) Some notes on my online teaching setup situation: In total, I have invested over $10,000 in hardware to ensure my students receive the most beautiful-looking and sounding online clarinet lessons. I have dedicated 100% of my professional efforts to becoming a world-class online clarinet teacher. My studio is purpose-built, acoustically treated, and connected to fast and stable internet. In my lessons, I use: -- Canon 90D DSLR (main webcam) -- Logitech Brio 4K (alternative/additional wide-angle webcam) -- Shure MV7 Microphone (voice mic) -- Neumann KM84 (clarinet mic) -- Kawai ES100 Digital Piano (for ear training, theory explanation, etc.) -- RME Babyface Pro Audio Interface (so my voice/clarinet/piano sound like they would in person)
