Experience Summary
I have tutored students from across the world in one-to-one and classroom situations. My recorded works include a bass trombone concerto (Simón Bolívar Orchestra). I am an adjudicator at band contests. In February 2008 I was invited to act as the musical director an impromptu massed band of 300 amateur brass band players in London's Trafalgar Square. All of this was organised within 5 days from the initial contact to the recording! I have founded a music-publishing house where I established a worldwide sales channel network for myself and other composers and arrangers in the brass and wind band genres. I am the visiting director of the Rockville (MD) Brass Band.
Teaching Style
I enjoy working in both one-to-one and classroom/band environments. I have a background in brass and percussion as well as music theory and I am a great believer in widening learners' horizons to what music will give my students both now and for their entire lives.
