Trumpet Lessons in Marble Hill. Amazing Teachers.

Relatable and experienced Trombone and Brass teacher looking for beginner/intermediate level students! All ages welcome, no one is too young or too old to learn as long as you like music and want to learn your instrument. We will set goals together based on how YOU want to sound and what music YOU want to play. I will do my best to offer you the knowledge and experience I have while relating it to other concepts/experiences you already possess. In lessons, you can expect to work on tone, embouchure, breathing, rhythms, lip slurs, etc.

Once we have a handle on the basics, I'll arrange music hand tailored for my student based on what music they like to listen to! I've done music for students all ages and many genres. A few examples of favorites are The Polar Express movie soundtrack music, Back to the Future soundtrack, Bad guy by Billie Ellish, We Are Number One from Lazy Town, and many others.

I hope you're excited about these lessons as much as I am because nothing makes me smile ...

I’m an experienced teacher with 8 years of experience teaching trumpet and other brass instruments. Additionally, I am a band director; I tailor instruction based on a student’s musical needs, and use the trumpet as a focus for instruction. My teaching emphasizes not only solid fundamental development, but also fosters a student’s individuality and creativity through targeted ear training and composition exercises.
