Christopher Clauss
Christopher is a Multi-instrumentalist singer-song writer from the east coast with a passion for performing and teaching music!
Originally a classically trained Violist, at 14 he changes his focus and picked up the electric guitar. Christopher has been blessed to front his own band, to learn and perform incredible music with some of his best friends, and to live a life that has been full of wonder and new connections and friendships.
After picking up the bass, and subsequently the drum kit and keyboard, Christopher set up his home studio and dove into the world of music engineering and production.
This desire to always learn and expand his knowledge has filled Christopher’s professional career with joy and experiences he cherishes.
Beginning in 2016, with a strong desire to share his passion with other inspired people, Christopher began teaching music to students both one on one, and in band-group settings at Lakehouse Music Studios in Asbury Park, NJ.
His teaching style is fun and patient, and focuses not just on technique and theory, but the innate connection we have with music; why do we feel emotionally touched by certain notes or moments in a song? His goal is to help students of all interests connect their inner passion, their experiences, and their hearts with their instrument to bring the experience of playing music to a whole new level.
He has toured the country and recorded albums playing with some of his favorite independent bands as a drummer, bassist and guitarist, such as progressive metal group Beatrix Potter, indie folk band The Accidental Seabirds, and hard rock group Baron Praxis.
With over fourteen years of experience performing in diverse genres, from folk to jazz to rock and metal and even Indian classical music, he is always looking for something new to learn and to share with his students.

Anastasia Neznamova
Music and the arts have always been a part of my life. I have been singing on the stage from three years old, and officially joined choir at age five. I sang as part of the Denver Children’s Choir from kindergarten until I graduated high school. I went on various tours with the choir, most significantly participating in an international choir competition in Europe. I was part of the treble ensemble that won first place in our category in the Bratislava Choir Festival. The final year I was able to be a part of the top ensemble of the choir called Altitude which worked on complex works ranging from a capella to classical to jazz, in a variety of languages. Now, I have joined the Festival Chorus at CU Boulder. Throughout my singing career, for some time I was able to take private lessons which defined my technique and taught me how to properly use the voice! Pop stars sound quite different from opera singers and it’s all about technique.
I am excited to work with any age to cultivate musicians that are excited and passionate about their craft. We will spend some time on warm ups for students to learn how to use the voice and body to make different sound and expand range. Depending on what your goals are, we can work on learning how to match pitch, sight read music, learn theory to better understand harmony, sing songs, or answer whatever question you may have. You can either bring me pieces, or we can pick some together, that you want to learn. I can also teach you how to play easy chords on the guitar while you sing if that’s what you are interested in!
