Trombone Lessons Sonoma County, CA

Instruments: Piano, Trombone

I began teaching private lessons while I was still in college around 2005 and have had few private students. Ive taught and coached jazz band, concert band, and orchestra youth programs like Stanford Jazz, The Jazzschool, and Golden State Youth Orchestra. The students I work with learn the fundamentals and mechanics of the instrument, the understanding of musical language and theory, how it relates to the world, expression of feelings, thoughts and ideas, and the overall joy and fulfillment of playing music on trombone.

Teaching and music are my true passions in life because I love seeing my student grow and music brings people together.

Through SOTA I performed over 100 concerts all around the Bay Area. I recently graduated from UC Santa Cruz where I was highly involved with the Santa Cruz music community. Read More

Music should not be merely stoic, mechanical, repetitive rudiments, paradiddles or scales. These important elements when paired with the mind and heart deliver the extraordinary essence of whomever or whatever is creating it. That expression is music.

There was undoubtedly more to Mozart then what we perceive in the many works he composed. Read More
