December 24, 2024Claire came to the memory care facility i work with and played for us. Not only did the residents love her playing, but I enjoyed honestly watching her love for music and people outshine in her performance. I look forward to working with her in the near future.

March 22, 2024We booked Clair on one day's notice for a high profile nonprofit event in Portland. She was incredibly communicative, professional, and self-directed. She provided welcoming music for arriving guests and subtle ambience for a reception after a press event. We would undoubtedly hire her again for any type of event.

Welcome!
I am Clair Dietz, a professional music teacher and performer with a passion for sharing my love of music. I teach music at two elementary schools in the Pacific Northwest and offer private lessons and performances for special occasions. My music education background includes a bachelor's degree in Cello Performance and Music Education from the University of Oregon. When I'm not teaching or performing, I enjoy staying active by engaging in outdoor activities such as hiking, jogging, and biking.
My Story:
My cello journey began when I was 10 years old, and it was love at first note! The deep, rich sound of the instrument resonated with me, and I knew music would forever be a part of my life.
