Trombone Lessons Ramsey County, MN

Instruments: Trombone, Euphonium, Tuba

I do not have a beginning method book that I prefer, so I typically use a student's band method book for early lessons. For advanced students I prefer the Bordogni/Rochut etude book and the Blazhevich clef studies, along with a solo. I use scales with students of any level, and expect for students to eventually have all the major and minor scales memorized. Read More

We will work together to choose the best method books for your study. We will also team up in selecting solo literature to play. If you are in a school music program, we will also make sure to include any method books or music your are currently studying. I really enjoy blending what we work on with what you are doing in your school band. Setting up your own practice "studio" and getting your practice routine will be a priority. Read More

My philosophy in teaching is that a good understanding of the foundation of music and the instrument will lead to self sufficiency in learning. I aim to teach my students not just to be dependant on myself as the instructor, but to be able to problem solve and learn on their own if they run into a question and an instructor is unavailable. I regularly practice sight reading with my students and keep them critically thinking about their music and what makes it up. Read More
