Customized Approach: I believe in finding music that suits your technical and expressive abilities. Together, we will work on the specific challenges presented by each piece. By tailoring the lessons to your individual needs, we will make significant progress in overcoming technical hurdles.

Fun and Engaging: Enjoying the process of making music is vital to creating good music. While technical skills are crucial, studying exercises that feel monotonous hinders progress.

Incorporating physical activities, acquiring good posture habits, and being aware of your breath benefits not only wind players but also individuals in all aspects of life. A solid breathing technique will enhance your trombone playing, while body posture awareness boosts productivity and minimizes the need for physical therapy. Discover life hacks that will benefit you beyond the realm of music.

Technology in Music: Embrace the opportunities offered by 21st-century technology in the audiovisual field. Learn to record auditions, produce and release your own music, delve into live looping, and utilize effects. I’ll guide you through the exciting realm of music technology. Curious?

What to Expect from Your Lessons

Breathing Practice: We’ll start each lesson with breathing exercises to warm up your body and prepare you for playing. These exercises will last approximately five minutes.

Goal-oriented Approach: We’ll focus on your specific objectives during each session. Whether it’s improving your high register, exploring different scales for improvisation, or diving deep into a new genre, we’ll address your musical aspirations. Areas of study may include reading music, ear training, phrasing, music theory, buzzing and embouchure position, articulations (legato, staccato, accents), dynamics, and more.

Moments of Relaxation and Creativity: The final minutes of your lesson will provide an opportunity to unwind. We can get creative, play tunes together, improvise, or engage in discussions about musicality, art, creativity, technique, theory, or the music industry.

Group Lessons and Ensembles: Experience the joy of making music with others. Join fellow students in technique workshops, engaging jam sessions, exciting piano duets, and other captivating activities. Collaborating with peers enhances musicality and fosters a sense of camaraderie.
