Trumpet Lessons in Sierra Madre, CA

Instruments: Piano Trumpet

As a trumpet player with 13+ years of experience performing, recording, and learning from many mentors of different backgrounds, I know how difficult and frustrating the trumpet can be.

We could turn to methods like the Breathing Gym to practice a physical manifestation of how that articulation should sound. Read More
