Trumpet Lessons in Clinton. Amazing Teachers.

I've been studying trumpet for 15 years, and I'm eager to work with students of all ages. I will give students a firm foundation in trumpet fundamentals, while also focusing on what the student would like to learn. I specialize in jazz and contemporary music, though I am also trained in classical music.

My best specialty!

I've spent time research and perfecting upper register trumpet playing. I play on bugles, cornets, and trumpets. I teach all 3 and encourage young players to start on bugles. Message me for help choosing an instrument. There are alternatives to the heavy brass and allows younger players even to learn. For example, my youngest boy who is turning 3 is learning bugle.

I want you to learn to express yourself through the trumpet, to help you master it and have lots of fun in the process! Trumpet was my second musical instrument (my first was my voice!), which I played through most of grade school and into high school. I can help you with good breath support and creating clear, steady tone.

Experienced Trumpet teacher of 5 years available for eager students of all experience levels! I structure my lessons so students learn what they want to learn, while also building a strong foundation of technical ability and excellent musicianship. I specialize in concert band and orchestral styles of music, however I can teach jazz styles as well. For beginning students I typically use Measures of Success Book #1. For intermediate students I recommend Standard of Excellence book #2 and book #3.
