Trumpet Lessons New Jersey

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Trumpet

I teach strong instrumental fundamentals, along with music theory comprehension, sight-reading, and ear training. I also like to emphasize ensemble playing using instrumental duets. I use appropriate level texts based on the student's experience first and age level second but always teach from what will make either younger students or adults feel comfortable. Fun is a must in one's progression but focus is key to success. I've helped students win concerto and ensemble awards and have also brought adults into the professional-level playing world through lessons. Read More

This will also help them to practice more frequently and work harder towards reaching this goal. Read More

As we work on these techniques I will be assiging trumpet solo repertoire which will apply many if not all of the fundemental trumpet techinques. Incorporating other material a student would like to learn outside of regular trumpet repretoire is important to me was well. Read More
