Michael Whitaker

I am currently in my first year at Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University majoring in classical trumpet. As well as having over a decade of multi-instrumental performance in a wide array of ensemble settings, I have several years of composition experience and have participated in several competitions with the Australian Society of Music Education, achieving second place in the QLD Young Composers’ Competition in 2016. I am an experienced ensemble conductor, currently undertaking casual and freelance work with community and secondary school ensembles around Brisbane. I am a passionate musician and a strong believer in music education from a young age, and as such I am willing to teach students of any age with a skill level from absolute beginner to intermediate. I am based in Burpengary – I am available to teach here or travel either north of Caboolture or anywhere in Brisbane (including southside). I am flexible with hours and can generally teach seven days a week. My current rates are $25 per half hour or $45 per hour. I am a valid blue card holder.
