    About Sarah B.

    (1)
    My teaching experience is mainly from Australia, where I completed my undergraduate studies in trumpet performance. This included school band students, adults (beginning and experienced) and musicians with special needs. All of my students were at different playing levels and learning abilities and I loved making sure everyone enjoyed their lessons and improved their musicianship simultaneously. I moved to the US to attend graduate school at the Eastman School of Music, studying with James Thompson. It was a fantastic two years, and I loved America so much that I decided to come to Austin and see more of it! I would love to teach anyone who is interested in learning more about the trumpet, and I can also provide training in theory and aural skills. I enjoy playing all kinds of music, especially orchestral and small ensembles. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you to get more enjoyment out of music!
