Aloha!
Welcome to my website, intended as a resource for all student trombonists. I have been Associate Principal Trombone of the Honolulu Symphony since 1996 and have more than 20 years of experience in the instruction of trombonists of all ages and levels. I am also on faculty at the University of Hawaii-Manoa and am trombonist with the Honolulu Brass Quintet. I received a master's degree from Northwestern University and studied primarily with Frank Crisafulli, Greg Irvine and Jay Friedman.
Please feel free to browse the website, or contact me directly about trombone lessons. I can also help you to put together music for your event, whether you are looking for a solo trombone, a brass quintet or a small orchestra.
Learning a Musical Instrument . . .
. . . can be a key to intellectual and physical development, as well as improved academic success in all areas of your school curriculum.
. . . teaches you how to learn, how to manage your time and how to set (and achieve) goals.
. . . can help you to gain confidence through your achievements.
. . . is fun!
I am also a licensed massage therapist. Check out my massage therapy website at www.lonepalmmassage.com.
