I believe when you feel better, you sound better.
Great brass playing starts with healthy technique. Whether you’re picking up a horn for the first time or preparing for a big audition, I’ll help you play in a way that supports your sound and your body. You’ll build strength and learn how to avoid injury so you can keep playing for decades.
Music Theory Tutoring That “Clicks”
Whether you’re prepping for your AP Music Theory exam or just want to understand what you’re playing, I’ll help you make sense of it. We’ll cover everything from reading rhythms and intervals to analyzing harmony and form— all at your pace.
I break down theory in a way that makes it clear, not intimidating, and I’d love to help you connect the dots between what you see on the page and what you hear in the music.
