I have 30+ years teaching experience and am a full time professional player. Getting students started on the right foot is my most favorite thing to do. This would be a great way to get a 3 day crash course for playing in band next year, to just play for fun at home, or a good time to scrape the barnacles off your horn if you haven’t played all summer :)
TOPICS:
Basic music reading skills
How to play the 1st 5 notes
Proper posture
Breathing tips
How to make a sound
How to oil your valves
How to clean the trumpet
How to practice and improve
Learn how to play several songs
Plus much, much more!
ZOOM LINK:
If you’ve never used Zoom before it is super easy. No account is needed. Just click the sign up now link and I will send you the Zoom link the day before. It will be the same link for all 3 days. Click on the link a couple minutes before each session and you will be connected.
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT:
1) Trumpet and a mouthpiece
2) Tablet or computer
(Phone is not recommended because music and videos will be shared on screen)
3) One tablespoon of cottage cheese, room temperature. Just kidding! This is just to see who actually read the instructions :)
If you have any questions beforehand please let me know...hope to see you there!
