I believe keeping my lesson plans in line with a student's particular passion for music is the key to success.

For adults, the lesson books I prefer to use, if any, will vary by what the student wants out of their piano lessons. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet

For players just starting out, I always start with the Hal Leonard Essential Elements book. It is a good place to learn the notes, as well as how to read music on necessary.
