Trombone Lessons in Summit, NJ

Instruments: Trombone

I began teaching trombone at Andys Music located in Livingston NJ in the early 2000s and later private in home instruction. I give the tools for the student to become a better player and to build confidence.

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements or other method books that they have been using.

In addition, I will include some technical exercises to master their skills and endurance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More
