Trumpet & Brass Instrument Lessons

My primary instrument is Trombone and I have professional experience with many styles of music - classical, jazz, Latin, contemporary, concert band, big band, orchestra.

I also teach the main brass instruments, perform in concerts and direct various ensembles at the Riverina Conservatorium of Music. Thirty-five years of brass instrument teaching includes employment at the Australian Institute of Music (Sydney) and throughout metropolitan and regional public / private primary and secondary school music programmes.

My private brass instrument studio is developing in the Riverina and Snowy region for Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium, French Horn and Tuba students - offering individual and share group lessons.

I focus on solid playing foundations, instrument technique and how to develop a great sound. I also enjoy balancing traditional music learning with the development of creativity and improvisation - ensuring students are experienced and equipped to play a broad range of music styles and creating their own music.
