I am available for booking as a Presenter of Masterclasses and Clinics for educational and performance purposes. As a current performing and teaching professional with over 25 years of experience, I have amassed a large quantity of experience in many areas of music. While I have presented masterclasses for the Edwards/Getzen Trombone Company, I currently am a Shires Artist and perform on their instruments for various colleges and Universities around the country.
After concerts and presentations, many people approach me saying, "I used to play trombone (or trumpet, or baritone, or tuba), in school, and I haven't touched it in years. You looked like you were having so much fun! You have inspired me to unpack my (instrument) from the attic!”
I regularly work with students from New England Conservatory's Preparatory Division, Walnut Hill School for the Arts, Boston Youth Symphony Orchestras, Springfield Youth Symphony, Connecticut Youth Symphony, Portland Youth Symphony, as well as through numerous Brass Quintet and Solo presentations throughout New England.
I welcome the opportunity to work with: Brass Players, Bands, Orchestras, Chamber Groups - any musical combination, and Interested Community Members- to learn more about, and to participate in the World of Music, Understanding and Appreciating music, and to Improve your current skills.
