TRUMPET LESSONS - FAQ

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q. When should I begin Lessons?
A. Most children are ready by age 10. It is important to develop good habits from the beginning.

Q. How much should I practice?
A. Beginners should work up to a minimum 40 minute practice session (five days a week). Depending upon your age and goals, your practice time will vary.

Q. When should I arrive at the studio?
A. Always arrive 5 minutes before your scheduled time. What should I bring to every lesson? Your instrument, all appropriate music books, metronome, 40-70 page notebook, pens and pencils.

Q. What if I have to cancel my lesson?
A. To cancel a lesson and receive credit for that lesson, you must call 24 hours prior to your scheduled time. When this occurs, you will be given an opportunity to make up the lesson during the week. Except in the case of emergency, you are financially responsible for unexcused lessons. Please understand that each missed lesson breaks the continuity of the learning process and will inhibit your progress.
