One of my most favorite and important aspect of my work is sharing my love of learning abaout music, and expressing ourselves in the art of playing a low brass instrument. I have had great satisfaction in watching students get excited about music over the years, whether it’s guiding a middle schooler through their first step-up instrument, High School students seeking further development in youth orchestra and summer performance opportunities, or College level students as I guide students in their musical journey in a supportive and nurturing manner. After years of study, it is always so bittersweet to see long time students move on to their next big step- college, or graduate school- knowing that they have come such a long way, and that they fully appreciate the life-long passion of making music.
What follows are helpful links to get the most out of our studio experience in learning a low brass instrument.
