About Gregory H.
Close
One of the most enjoyable instruments to play when done correctly.
About Gregory
As a younger brother at the age of five, I began studying the piano because my older sister did. After my foundation in music strengthened I fell in love with the trumpet. At first, each note took time to develop and I enjoyed the challenge. The trumpet allowed me to travel all over the Southeast later in life and even to China with a 1940's Radio Show. I enjoyed many top-level bands the kindled my love and passion for good music. I want to share that kindling with my students in a nurturing and guiding situation, just like my teachers gave me.
I used to go to lessons and become so motivated and inspired that I thought I could change the world. I always knew that I would want to give back exactly that. As my performance opportunities grew into venues like Churchill Grounds, The Rialto, and The Variety Playhouse in Atlanta
I used to go to lessons and become so motivated and inspired that I thought I could change the world. I always knew that I would want to give back exactly that. As my performance opportunities grew into venues like Churchill Grounds, The Rialto, and The Variety Playhouse in Atlanta
and Radio City Music Hall, 54 Below, The Jazz Standard, Bowery Ballroom, Shapeshifter and Flushing Town Hall in New York, my fire for wanting to develop my teaching did also. I was always thinking back to what my old teachers gave me, inspiration. I then understood that inspiration is the key to success in life.
*** Lesson Details ***
Lessons will be something the student looks forward to every week. We will work through common method books and learn material that the student has an interest in. For example, some students want to learn to play high notes, a popular song, improvise, or write their own songs. I am a laid back guy, but I do expect effort in the lessons and at home. I believe whatever you put into music is what you get out of it, and I will inspire and motivate the student to get as much out of the lessons as they can. Students will create, with my advisement, and update short term and long term goals every few months.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Keyboard or Piano and Music Stand
*** Travel Equipment ***
They should provide their instrument, instrument care products (valve oil), method books and sheet music.
*** Specialties ***
I specialize in jazz and classical music. I use many common methods depending on how the student tends to learn the best, and will even combine different methods if the student requires it.

I am getting back into the trumpet following a gap after playing for 10 years when I was at high school. Gregory has really helped getting my technique and sound going again, I have been really pleased with my improvement. He has a great demeanour and has been great fun to work with. He is also an excellent player, and is highly reliable and easy to schedule with.

I am a professional full time Trombonist. At the same time, teaching has always been a big part of who I am - I love teaching. My music career has taken me around the world and back but more than that it has given me a wonderful tool of self expression, and for that I am forever grateful. My band performs regularly in Opera houses as well as coffee houses... Other than the Trombone I do play the Trumpet as well, and I have over 8 years of Piano under my belt.

ALL AGES WELCOME!
Students will be taught how to create a relationship with the the trombone and allow it to become a vehicle for there own creativity.

I hope that I could have the honor of sharing that with you and that we may grow together.

As a performer with the Southern Indiana Wind Ensemble, Indianapolis Wind Symphony, and the Indiana University Symphonic Band, I have extensive performance experience as an ensemble player and as a soloist. I am familiar with the common repertoire of trombone music/etudes, and can assist students with anything from supplemental lessons to their curricular music program all the way to college audition prep.
About Chris
Originally from Bloomington, IN, I've worked as a music instructor and professional musician for over 8 years. I love being involved in all aspects of the music industry, whether it's writing, teaching, arranging, performing, recording, producing, or promoting.
I have taught over 50 students in the 6 years I've been teaching, and have had several of those students go on to become music majors in college. My focus as an educator is to establish fundamentals and vitally important techniques as effectively and quickly as possible with my students. Then, it becomes more enjoyable and sustainable to begin making great music (all the while incorporating those important aspects of being a musician!).

About Marco G.
Close
I am glad to hear and help with all kinds of music, be it études, solo pieces, orchestral excerpts, and playing of any kind! As all artists search for inspiration, any player of any skill level can have something imporant to say in what they do, and I hope to help students be able and willing to experiment with their work ethic, goals, and overall growth as a musician and an instrumentalist. I can best provide help using the staple texts for low brass instruments to foster an appreciation for both musical and technical improvement alike. If you’re willing to try it and play it, I’m willing to help you get there!
About Marco
My name is Marco Gomez and I have been playing the trombone for 10 years now. I am in my third year of undergraduate bass trombone studies at The Juilliard School, focusing on classical/orchestral performance. I was born in Caracas, Venezuela and have lived mostly in Miami, Florida.
Although my education largely revolves around classical training, I have performed in musicals, big bands, jazz combos, small rock groups, brass ensembles, salsa groups among other things. I play the bass trombone as my primary focus, although I have played a few performances on tuba and euphonium through my time playing, and started out by playing the tenor trombone, having switched to bass as a focus four years ago.

Within my past two years at Juilliard, I have had the privilege to play as a subsitute with the Metropolitan Opera, the Buffalo Philharmonic, an
d the Montclair Orchestra as well as performances alongside ballet dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov, solo pianist Denis Matsuev, and solo clarinetist Sabine Meyer among others.
This past summer completed my second summer as part of the Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival Orchestra Academy, having played concerts in cities across Germany’s northernmost region, as well as Berlin.
Besides playing music, I study German privately and at the Goethe Institut, I enjoy getting to know the food and culinary scene in New York City, as well as take trains out of the city to find new hikes on free weekends. I also enjoy having conversations just about anything, and have best gotten along with my professors who are talkative and like telling stories.
My biggest goals in music are to play in a professional symphony orchestra, as well as engage in other performance opportunities involving other types of music and performances on the side.
My biggest goals for a student are their biggest goals, and I am especially open to new interests and challenges in students!
