Years of Experience: 25 Location Options: In Home Genres: Rock, Blues, Jazz, Classical, Country, Acoustic, Christian, RB, Gospel, Pop Age Groups: Adult Instruments Taught: Song Writing Lessons,Orchestral Lessons Overview: Hi, my name is Danny and I am a trombonist and composer from West Texas. I have been a student of music for 35 years. My musical influences include movie composers such as Danny Elfman and John Williams, and Jazz composers and musicians such as Count Basie and Frank Rosolino to name a few. I also enjoy playing golf. My teaching style can best be described as psychological and empathetic. My teaching philosophy can best be described by saying that I teach students technique and then how to use that technique to manipulate the emotions of the listener. In my lessons, you can expect to learn proficiency and the effect of the human emotion through music. I like to tell my students practice doesn't make perfect....perfect practice makes perfect. My favorite thing about teaching is seeing my students succeed in auditions and having the parents thank me when my students are happy being in top bands. My favorite performance was Santa Clara Vanguard when they won DCI championship with Phantom of the Opera in 1989 or 1990. My students love that I am more patient than i should be and when i give them visualizations of the music they are playing. I primarily teach trombone, but I can also teach Baritone, and Trumpet. My approach as a teacher is to assess the student's skill level or potential and write lessons to nurture each student's individual proficiency. Thanks for taking a look at my profile. Hope to meet you soon!

Years of Experience: 15 Location Options: In Home Travel Radius: 30 Genres: Rock, Blues, Jazz, Classical, Country Age Groups: Children, Young Adult, Adult Instruments Taught: Orchestral Lessons Overview: I grew up in Nashville, Tennessee, so I was surrounded by music my entire life. The simple act of being driven home from school brought me face to face with these huge buildings, all of them recording studios and record labels... So, I got into violin when I was 5, through the Suzuki method, because my parents forced me to. At the time, I really wanted to play drums, but we lived in a small apartment at the time, and they didn't want to make the neighborhood mad. They're first choice was actually piano, but they were afraid it would cost too much. So, after several months, when the indomitable scratches I was making finally turned into something vaguely resembling "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," I gradually became hooked. I loved music, loved the feel of the violin under my neck, and loved playing in front of people... BUT the overall stuffiness, pedagogical rigidity, and absurd pomposity of the whole classical violin scene wasn't really what I had in mind, so (being blessed with wonderful, supportive parents) I started getting involved with old-time and bluegrass fiddling style - really loving the chance to do something more fun, more freeing, and more a part of my culture and heritage...Then, to make a potentially really long story shorter, I discovered Jean-Luc Ponty, got an electric, and starting going crazy. .... Basically, musically speaking, I don't believe in boundaries - I don't think musicians need to be categorized or put into little boxes that tells them what they can and can't do. I think people should be allowed to explore whatever voices they find something true and beautiful - and feel free to add their own voice. I wanna learn from anything and everything, because music provided a window into another human's soul - and I believe each soul has value. I don't exalt Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms above anyone else, but I prefer to learn the music of the outsider, the marginalized, and the voiceless. As a teacher, I believe each student needs to be encouraged to improvise, and discover their own voice, not merely be told what to play. * Formal Education: May, 2008 BA Anthropology, Wheaton College, Wheaton, IL July, 2009 Teacher-training, Strings Without Boundaries Camp, Duquesne University, Pittsburg, PA Currently enrolled at Fuller Theological Seminary, Intercutlural Studies with Dual Emphasis in Ethnomuiscology and Urban Studies.
