Experience Summary
A Trumpeter who loves communication and
contact. Now, over two decades, he is seasoned
through travel as a versatile musician, life
theorist, humanist, and composer.. .
While he has many goals and has seen
success in the less-explored cracks
and crevices of his instrument, throughout
these experiences his main focus has been
kept a simple relationship with Music.
He considers it a Blessing undisguised, and
therefore accepts that it is both a Love and
a responsible generosity to share the
excitement Music unfolds for him with All
those who listen. I Love
Teaching Style
When learning the Trumpet it is important to understand that there is no particular style that one should be connected to.
Music of all walks has a bit of something condusive to your higher education.
So if you are interested truly in bettering yourself on the instrument, then the best thing to do is to check out all the styles.
My Hobbies
I like climbing, backpacking, and other physically exertive activities.
Other Comments
I look forward to exploring the instrument always with exciting new and interesting students.
