Homework
1-2 hours per week. In order to grow as musicians, it's vital that students practice at least three times a week, if not every day. A weekly lesson usually ends in assigning a short list of tasks for the week. Those tasks usually include: -practicing scales -practicing material from a method book -technical exercises -listening assignments In all, the assignment list should take about thirty minutes on its own (but more practice is always encouraged!).
Assessment
Students perform their prepared material in their lesson each week. In addition, making a recording while practicing to bring to a lesson is highly encouraged.

Class Experience

This is a course for individual instruction for trombone/euphonium players. As the needs of each student will be different, the content of each lesson will vary. However, emphasis is always placed on the following concepts:

-good breathing
-correct embouchure and articulation
-correct slide positioning with notes in tune
-a pleasing tone: not pinched or forced, not wobbly
-scales, arpeggios, and other technical exercises
-good music reading skills with correct pitches and rhythms
-beginning understanding of musical phrasing and how to apply it to written music

Lessons usually follow the structure below:
-warming up
-exercises in technique/scales
-current music (for example: a band piece, All-State audition material, a method book etude, or a solo)
-assignments for the following week

Learning Goals

First, students will gain technical prowess on their instrument, focusing on concepts like air usage, embouchure, articulation, and slide positioning. Beyond this, they will further their musicianship by improving their sight-reading, listening, and analytical skills. Perhaps most importantly, this course provides instruction in how to practice correctly--a skill that students need the most in order to improve!

Other Details

Supply List
- a functioning trombone and a mouthpiece
- any music being worked on (band method book, any concert music, any PDF sheet music that I give out)
- a metronome/tuner (I recommend the Korg TM60)
