Trombone Lessons South

Instruments: Piano, Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium, Tuba

With young beginner students, I start with either the Essential Elements books for wind instruments or the Faber method for piano.

I create custom lesson plans, goals, and objectives based on the individual student's needs and interests.  Strong fundamentals are essential to readily achieve musical success, therefore, I begin with the essentials of posture, breathing, sticking/articulation, and best practice habits.  If a student already has a method book or repertoire with which he or she is learning, I am happy to continue with current music, or I have many method books and resources to recommend.
