Trombone Lessons Virginia Beach County, VA

Instruments: Trombone, Euphonium

From the beginning of my musical career I have combined performing and teaching as two sides of the same coin. As trombonist in America's first full time brass chamber ensemble (Annapolis Brass Quintet), I toured and recorded internationally and taught private lessons and chamber ensembles around the world. Early on, it became apparent that my love of teaching rivaled that of performing, and I have a special affinity for teaching younger students, because the learning curve is so much steeper and faster!

For children, my foundational methods include Leonard, Krueger, Clarke, Arban, Reinhardt, Rizzetto, Pearson, and Rubank. Solo and ensemble repertoire is introduced at the appropriate time. Time is also spent on improvisation, writing original compositions, and learning music that the students have brought to the lesson. For adults, we focus on what students are interested in working on, regardless of their ability level. Many adults want to spend part of the lesson working with the foundational methods, and spend part of the lesson learning one or two pieces of music. Read More
