Discussions > Beginner and Intermediate Trombone Lessons with Focus on Jazz

Hey Dave, long time no talk. Glad to hear you are back on the West Coast. Coming into the fall, I want to explore some fresh perspectives regarding teaching trombone to beginners and intermediate students. Some areas that I am curious about are:
1. Initial technical requirements on the horn (long tones, basic articulation, flexibility slurs, scales)
2. Initial listening
3. Stylization and transcribing
4. Sight reading
5. How these areas can be approached with different types of students (visual, hearing, kinesthetic)
Any thoughts to share or suggestions for research?
Thanks!

Some great questions, and ones I get quite a bit. I'm starting a FAQ page as I write this, and these questions are going in first. Sorry for the delay in putting up this reply. BTW - it sounds like this is someone I know, but who?

Thanks,

Dave Marriott

Hey Dave,

We met at the Port Townsend Jazz Workshop in 1993 (long time ago now!)

Looking forward to checking out the FAQs once they are on your site - thanks!
