Listening to great playing is the first step to motivating and enhancing your practice

I have added a video bar to this blog for all my students to hear examples of what variety of things the trumpet can do! Please listen, enjoy, immitate, and learn.

The video bar changes every 4 or 5 minutes to a different artist. Almost all clips are of trumpet players performing different types and styles of music. There is also a set of clips on Gerald Schwartz who is now a conductor, but used to be one of the finest trumpet players alive back in the 60's and 70's. There are so many opportunities to make music and have fun. Take a big leap and enjoy the ride!!
