Trombone, Bass Trombone, Euphonium, Tuba Lessons. Music Theory.

From 68 C$ /h

I am a professional bass trombonist, I have been teaching for over 5 years from beginners to college level. I am from the United States where I have taught private and large group lessons. I have a Bachelors in Music Performance from the University of Texas at Austin and a Masters from the Amsterdam Conservatorium. Through my experience I have found it crucial to start lessons with setting goals for each student; from simple short term goals to more advance long term goals. Just like any art that you wish to learn, practicing is a vital part to succeed, therefore starting with fundamentals and slowly advancing our techniques into repertoire is a very personal experience and we all learn at different rates. With one on one lessons each student has the convenience of setting personal goals, taking different routes to succeed, and overall enjoying the interaction between teacher and student.

I always like to begin lessons, normally lasting around 30 minutes. This will allow me to learn more about the student and their aspirations. Likewise the student will learn about my teaching methods and the structure of the lessons.

I'd be more than glad to share more information about my experience and educational background. I am fluent in English and Spanish.

This class is for beginner-intermediate-advanced musicians who aim to explore more about music and get better at their playing on their instrument.
This doesn't refer only to professional but includes amateur and passionated students interested about how to gain more music knowledge.
Music is one. there's no differences between its styles.
Learning it means learning about yourself, your strengths and weaknesses and the class will be self designed for the student starting from his/her desires.
moreover music will be researched eventually from its main topic such as improvisation, time feel, resonance and intonation for brass , harmonic knowledge and music theory.

I offer professional Brass instruments (Bariton, Tenorhorn, Euphonium, Trombone, Trumpet, Tuba) lessons for children from the age of four, for teenagers and adults. Whether beginner or advanced, that doesn't matter to me. Every motivated student of trumpets is welcome with me. I see it as my job to promote the particular character of each student. Playing the trumpet is an art that is difficult to explain. To become a good Brass player, you need more than “just” to master your instrument. Practice is a basic requirement. Young Brass students, children in particular need the support and support of their parents in the learning process, but the joy in the practice lessons should not be left behind. The focus of my lessons is on conveying musical understanding, sound technology and music literature from classical to klezmer to jazz. Elements such as transpose, orchestral replacement and sight reading are also taken into account in the lessons. I accompany the students as they prepare for competitions and auditions. I am happy to support you in improving your stage presence. I offer one-on-one and two-on-one classes. I teach the pocket trumpet for children. Furthermore, cornet, B and C trumpet (American and German) as well the Bariton, Tenorhorn, Euphonium, Tuba and Trombone.

I will give you the knowledge of vocal technique that will lead you to develop your voice, both in lyrical and modern singing. We will at your pace and according to your needs, regardless of whether you learn from scratch or if you have been there for some time. The one-hour chronological classes consist of step-out exercises to disconnect from the stress of the day, breathing, vocalization, vocal technique applied to the repertoire of your choice and also to some works that I will leave you as challenges so that you improve every day more .

I have been working as a professional singer and singing teacher for more than five years in different schools and giving private classes, which led me to seek complementary knowledge such as the constructivist method and yoga, also obtaining certifications for them. I did it because I have realized that conservatories train excellent interpreters, but not teachers who know how to teach. For there to be knowledge transfer, there must be dedication, empathy and pedagogical tools that allow the teacher to approach the needs of the student.

Learning to sing doesn't always have to be a frustrated dream, we can all do it well, either as a hobby or because we want to be professionals. My name is Catalina and I am a singer, I teach other people because connecting through music is my passion.

I always work the classes under two principles:

1. Keep the class light and fun.
2. That everything in class is understandable and clear (if I have to repeat 80 times, no problem).

Methodology of the classes:

Classes can be taught at my home, the student's home, or virtually.
In the first class, a repertoire of approximately 2 or 3 songs is defined, which correspond to the student's taste as well as the vocal challenges they face, and an evaluation of strengths and challenges in learning is made.

In general all classes are divided into 3 parts:

1. Body warm-up (stretching, breathing exercises and activation of important muscles for singing).
2. Vocal warm-up through exercises to strengthen agility, tuning, phrasing and support.
3. Repertoire work where each of the details of the song being sung is reviewed, paying special attention to the most difficult parts of the song.

I have been fortunate to be able to teach children, adolescents, adults and seniors.
