I have been teaching trumpet for 6 years. My teaching style is very relaxed. My goal is to help you get better at what you are doing in a way that is easy and enjoyable. Whatever specific interests you bring to my attention, we will work on. Having played many styles of music I can offer guidance in helping you discover what you enjoy doing. No rules. No gimmicks. The only objective is to explore music while learning it through the trumpet. Not your typical "piano-lesson"

Hello! My name is Nathan Kay. I'm a young professional trumpet player in Boston and specialize in Jazz and Classical Trumpet. I received my Bachelor's Degree from the Eastman School of Music in 2019, and have been fortunate to teach at music camps and privately as well over the past three years. My teaching is guided by two very important principles:
1: Teaching music is not only teaching music itself, but also teaching an appreciation for it as well. Music should be fun!
2: Every student is different, and everyone learns in a different way. Education should be personalized, and I will help each student achieve their personal individual goals!
