Brass Lessons
Ross Macintosh teaches brass lessons, theory, and history in the Wolfville, Nova Scotia area to students of all levels, from age 5 through to adult!
I work with each student to develop a plan for the year specific to their goals and interests, which always includes:
technique
posture and alignment
solo and ensemble repertoire
theory rudiments
twice yearly studio recitals
regular practice at home
Additional opportunities could be:
conservatory exams
music festivals
scholarship competitions
outreach performances
