Hi, I'm Marc Gelfo
I'm a pro French horn player, life-long learner, and founder of Modacity, a music practice platform that accelerates learning.
My music journey started at age 5 with piano, which I continued playing as I learned French horn, violin, cello, trumpet.
I can help you or your child learn faster & achieve meaningful goals while having more fun.

My students vary from those who want to play in a band, to church musicians, as well as retired adults who studied as young children. I teach all ages. At the college piano class I teach 20 beginners functional skills - that means they make music from the beginning. The students learn the chords and are able to play with others within a few lessons. Some of my private lessons also focus on functional skills.
I also have a select group of students who perform professionally and come to me for technical coaching.
