Music Lessons in Camp H M Smith, HI. It's your time.

I place a heavy emphasis on not only playing music but understanding it. Understanding what you're playing is one of the most important differences between an amateur and a professional musician.

Music is all about relationships and patterns. I teach my students to recognize and identify these relationships and patterns to set them up on the course for musical mastery.

This is one of the subjects you can not do by yourself. Very important for any musician. Method books you will have to purchase online.

Viola perfomance and techniques

Hello and welcome to my studio!

In my studio, all trumpet players feel welcomed and I will do my best to keep you/your child happy and having fun while taking lessons.

Your first lesson begins with breathing exercises as we need air to play trumpet. Proper posture, embouchure for playing, and making a nice sound will come next. I have several method books depending on your trumpet experience, but if you already have a book we can use yours. We will also work on the more detailed aspects of trumpet playing such as articulations and range (yay high notes!), while learning new songs!

If you are already a more advanced student, we will work on music that pushes you to a higher level (Clarke, Arbans, Real Book etc.). I will also give you more detailed and advanced concepts to remove excess tension, play more musically instead of robotically, and overall make playing feel much easier.

I'm glad you have decided to take trumpet lessons and look forward to helping you make great music! ...

Experienced teacher of 13 years. All ages and levels of experience welcome. Lessons are customized to the student and are focused on their personal goals. I will help you build a strong foundation in technique, tone, and basic fundamentals; for intermediate/advanced players, we can look further into musicality, extended techniques, and more. Whether you are finally taking the jump into pursuing music for the first time or getting you ready for your college audition, I am here to help you reach your true potential.

Hello I like to make learning an instrument fun and easy to fit into your schedule! If you're an adult finally getting around to learning your dream instrument or a child following your passion of playing music I tailor your lessons specifically to you. I have lots of music theory training/background, and I enjoy sharing that knowledge as well.
