Dr. Natalie Law enjoys a diverse career as a bassoonist, educator, and entrepreneur.  She performs in both orchestral halls as well as in elementary school gymnasiums.  Natalie believes that positive change begins with education and primarily focuses on her work as a teacher.  Her passion for education has led her to create innovative methods of teaching bassoon students through online mediums. 

 

The bassoon is often an underrepresented and misunderstood instrument in school music programs across the United States.  This is why Natalie founded and created Building a Bassoonist, which is an online resource designed to teach and support bassoon students.  The project was developed primarily to serve students in both rural and underserved areas who do not otherwise have access to a bassoon teacher.  

 

Natalie completed her DMA at Michigan State University, where she also obtained her Master's degree in Bassoon Performance.  She earned two Bachelor's degrees in Music Performance and Music Education from the University of Montana.
