https://www.musictheory.net/exercises/note
Pianists - using the settings button at the top right of the screen, select 'Grand Staff'.
Cellists - using the settings button at the top right of the screen, select the clef you are currently practicing. You can select multiple clefs, so for example, if you are working on Tenor clef - once you are feeling pretty confident with tenor, do some practice with bass AND tenor so you get used to clef changes.

eugene symphony
Noah plays in the cello section with this great regional symphony, which performs in the beautiful Silva Hall in the Eugene Hult Center. Concerts are generally on Thursday evenings from 7:30-9:30. Student tickets are very affordable, and we encourage all our students to consider attending a performance (piano students, look for performances that include a piano concerto - it's a thrill to behold!). If your student needs to hitch a ride, please ask as we often have room and are happy to drive.
