It was a pleasure to connect with Cielito de Jesus and chat about the vibrant double bass educational scene she has built in Southern California! 

As the founder of the Rabbath Institute Los Angeles, Cielito has dedicated her career to teaching Vance-Rabbath pedagogy to middle and high school students throughout the Los Angeles area.  She works with over 60 bassists each week.

Cielito has worked with many of the world’s great bass teachers, including past podcast guests François Rabbath, Patrick Neher, and Thierry Barbé.  She’s a great person and is doing wonderful things for the double bass community.  Be sure to check out the Rabbath Institute Los Angeles for more information about this great event!
