I have been playing the trumpet for almost 50 years, and I have taught students of all ages and abilities for over 40 years. My own trumpet teacher was Joe Alessi, Sr. He was a long-time member of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra and Radio City Music Hall, and later played and taught in San Francisco. His teachers were William Vacchiano, Max Schlossberg, Harry Glantz, and many other famous players and teachers. So the method books and materials I have written over the years are supported by a long tradition of great trumpet teaching. I hope you enjoy the materials I have posted on Amazon.com. I am also the owner and General Manager of Ultra-Pure Oils LLC, where you can find all the oils and care products you need to maintain your brass instrument. See www.ultrapureoils.com.
