    30-Minute, 45-Minute or 60-Minute Music Lessons

All trumpet lessons are taught as private, one-on-one music instruction and are available in lengths of 30, 45, and 60 minutes. We suggest kids and teenagers begin with 30-minute lessons and progress to longer lengths as your teacher recommends. For adults who have some previous experience, we recommend starting with 45- or 60-minute lessons.

Trumpet Lessons for Kids and Teenagers

Because of the size and demands of playing the trumpet, we recommend that students be at least 8 years old before starting trumpet lessons. Basics, including buzzing on the mouthpiece, partials and overtones, breath control, music reading, posture, and more are introduced to new students. Intermediate and advanced students focus on improving repertoire and technique, including breath control and support, posture, tonal quality, finger dexterity, articulation, and hand position.

Students playing in school ensembles are encouraged to bring their music to work on during lessons.

Trumpet Lessons for Adults

We welcome adults who have never played the trumpet to start music lessons! Beginning students focus on fundamentals, while intermediate and advanced students focus on improving repertoire and technique, including breath control and support, posture, tonal quality, finger dexterity, articulation, and hand position.
