This is where I think it is fun to be creative because we are all different. Everybody has a different method of interpretation and I feel like that is my job to figure out what works for you as an individual.

It is also my job to know the difficulty level and how to guide you in the right direction to keep things fun! Read More

Instruments: Trombone, Euphonium, Music
