About

1st Individual lesson is offered HALF PRICE, Groups / School tutoring on request.

I am an experienced Trombone player and teacher, including preparing students for exams and auditions. I am studying a Bachelor of Music (Performance Major) in Classical Trombone at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. I have completed all AMEB Grades up to and including Professional Performance. I currently perform with the Conservatorium Orchestra as well as the Sydney Youth Orchestra (SYO). In 2020 I toured internationally with the SYO as Associate Principal Trombonist which included playing in concert with the London Symphony Orchestra. In the same year I was selected an Australian Youth Orchestra ‘Young Symphonist’. During High School I played in both the ‘Schools Spectacular’ Orchestra and Stage Band as well as the top ensembles with the NSW Arts Unit. I have freelance professional playing experience including for the international rock band “Foreigner” on their most recent tour of Australia including their sold out performance at the Sydney Opera House. I am available to teach from my home studio (Sutherland Shire) or will travel on request. Please get in touch – especially if you are a young player starting out in school bands. Learning Trombone properly from the beginning (and not just from a band leader) will make a big difference to your playing and set you up for future success.
