What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I believe having a routine is one of the most important things when it comes to practicing effectively. Like an athlete has a routine before a game or practice, I believe the same thing applies to musicians. Beginning with fundamentals to get the brain and face warmed up, and moving on to more difficult warm up exercises. Depending on what needs to be worked on, practicing what pieces and when will vary day to day, but going into a practice session with a plan on what you will work on and how you will work on it is extremely important. I find writing down my goals before a practice session helps me stay focused and oriented to what needs to get done in order to have an effective practice session.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
When a child shows a passion for music i believe it is important to put an instrument in their hands as soon as possible. In some cases, certain instruments are easier to learn/play at a younger age than others. For this reason, the world famous Suzuki teaching method offers only strings and piano, since those instruments only require the arms and hands, unlike wind and brass instruments. It is different for everybody, but my general time table for when a child is ready to play a brass instrument is around their 10th birthday.

When will I start to see results?
This depends mostly on how much the student practices and comes to lessons as prepared as they can. If the student does so, beginner students tend to see growing results by the 3rd or 4th week. beginners on brass instruments, like the trombone, have an exta hoop to climb through, as we have to build strength and muscle around our embouchure, or where we buzz and blow air into the horn. Because we need to do this as well as learning notation and where to move the slide, sometimes it takes some time. But with active lessons and active at home practicing, learning can go smoothly.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I come from a long line of musicians in my family, so the first person to influence me was my father, who was a trumpet player for the Hartford Symphony Orchestra in Connecticut. He originally started me on Cello in 3rd grade, which I did not enjoy, and later, at the end of 4th grade, I was introduced to the trombone, and since then I have never looked back. Aside from family, I have had two teachers that have had the most influence on me. My high school band director Mr. T, who taught me how to be the smartest musician and best teacher I could be, and my trombone professor at the Hartt School, who taught me how to be the player I am today.
