Being a professional performer for many years my teaching knowledge comes from real performance experience that I can share with students .
BRASS LESSONS focus first on TONE PRODUCTION as this is the foundation of all brass playing, This is done by understanding how embouchure develops step by step and how your TONE CONCEPT starts in your mind and then in time comes through the instrument.
SPECIAL JAZZ IMPROVISATION studies for advanced players Include my method to quickly relate CHORDS TO KEYS and RANDOM EAR TRAINING so you can develop melodic jazz improvisation quickly. The end goal is to be able to play instantly from MIND to INSTRUMENT.
I have been a brass teacher and jazz educator for many major music stores , as well as many years of doing online and in home private lessons. Some of my jazz students have contacted me from Europe, Canada, Italy and Japan.
