About Oscar

Bio: (concealed information)

What does Oscar do in New York?: Professional freelance trumpet and conducting performance. On faculty at Third Street Music School Settlement. Performs with symphony orchestras, wind ensembles, chamber ensembles, pit orchestras, brass bands.

Expectations of Study:

1. Students must create goals to build their personal musicianship.

2. Musicians must listen to role models and develop their own concept of a great sound. I can help you find these role models in recordings and at live performances.

3. Brass musicians must have great ears. Singing and ear training are musts when learning a brass instrument.

4. As a teacher, it is my job to teach a student how to practice. I'll make sure that you know how to improve on your own.

5. The student and teacher must respect each other’s time.

6. Having a “growth mindset” is essential for brass playing.

About the lesson

  • All levels
  • English

Languages in which the lesson is available :

English

The first lesson is all about getting to know you and figuring out what you want out of private lessons. It's a time to share our goals and expectations of one another. I promise to provide examples, books recommendations, and resources from day one.



All ages! My trumpet students have ranged from age 8 to 64! Also, all experience levels. I've worked with beginners through college and community college music majors. 



Music teachers should:

- Help you set goals and select repertoire

- Provide resources for your studies

- Get in touch with your humanity as a musician

- Help you train your ears!

- Respect your time

- Be flexible and forgiving 

- Motivate you to be your very best

- Help you have fun!



A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Be prepared to address the following with a new teacher:

- Why did I pick this instrument? What kind of music do I want to make?

- What is my budget with my instrument and music making? This is important because it helps me determine what resources I can provide and recommend to you.

- What kind of equipment do I have already? What kind of equipment do I need to be successful?
