Instruments: Trumpet, Trombone

I find music has two important aspects to emphasize, reading and understanding music theory on sight, and hearing and interpreting music. For reading and music theory at it's most basic level I use books like Arban's method. This book contains scales and patterns that are easy to digest for someone learning to read music while also building up the intricate brass technique needed for all brass instruments. For hearing and interpreting I use simple excercises to start like having a student play back a simple line I play to them or have them identify what kind of scale it chord I just played. Read More

They all had there own warmup exercises and practice routines that they in turn picked up from there previous teachers. I have a lot of information to pass on! And...I'm still practicing every day...working on some aspect of music making and trombone playing. Read More
