Music is the Universal Language

The Trombone is God's Voice :)


Music is a language and communication skill, so you will be encouraged to listen, speak, read, and write just as you would in any language class. Therefore, vocabulary terms and definitions will be emphasized, but general music notation will also be introduced in the form of written music. I will help you every step of the way and your progress will be evaluated through periodic recording assignments, practice journal entries, lesson quizzes, a midterm and a final exam. 

iBone App


I'll show you how to use this awesome $3 smartphone app to help you learn all the trombone notes and slide positions

Your First Three Notes

Cleaning Your Trombone


In Lesson 5, I'll walk you through the cleaning process step-by-step so you can keep your horn in proper working order and stay healthy while you play!
