The Renaissance Music School was established in September 2003 in Bedfordshire by the Goldman Family. The music school fills a gap in the musical educational needs of the area. It provides high quality one to one music tuition by qualified and experienced specialised teachers. The school readily accepts students of all ages. Those who request it, are thoroughly prepared for examinations and our own accompanist is available. Rehearsals are mostly carried out at lessons, allowing the teacher to supervise. These rehearsals during the lessons are done at no extra cost, though payment is required for the accompanist at the actual examination. We also undertake to prepare students for GCSE, A level and University Entrance Examinations. The school has an excellent record, with all students thus far having passed with excellent grades. We regularly organise student concerts allowing our pupils to meet and share their music. These are always accompanied by refreshments.

Rosanne Goldman, school director and woodwind clinician, has been teaching music for over thirty years. She remains passionate and enthusiastic about music education. She specialises in Clarinet, Saxophone, Voice, Recorder and Music Therapy. Her career began in South Africa, the place of her birth. There she gained her ATCL,  B.Mus(Hons) degree and the Higher Diploma in Education (Post-Graduate), which also allowed her to work as a music therapist, at the University of the Witwatersrand. She played in orchestras and performed solo repertoire in South Africa as well as teaching Music, English and Drama at schools. In Israel she taught at various music schools, including the Rubin Conservatorium of Music in Haifa. She also had a large private studio. In addition, Rosanne was the first person to practise Music Therapy in Israel. Upon immigration to Australia, she continued performing, teaching music and consulting as a music therapist, both at schools and privately. There she gained a Diploma in Music Therapy and was accepted as a member of the Australian Music Education Board. Since arriving in the United Kingdom in 2001, Rosanne has taught music at a comprehensive high school and is now the founder and director of the Renaissance Music School. Rosanne has composed songs for children and has written musical educational performance material. Her extensive experience has allowed her to help many woodwind players on various aspects of their technique. She is a specialist on embouchure correction.
