Compared to other online courses I have tried already I can see that the instructor is very good. Clear explanations. Calm voice that helps me focus on what he's saying. No visual distractions in the video.
-Christina Purcell
Excellent for those beginning the horn. Everything is broken down, the instruction is logical and complete. Very solid educationally.
-Gwen Clark
Well detailed and explained. I'm changing from euphonium to French horn and want to be sure that I'm doing things right. This course would suit a beginner as well as a restarting player or changing player.
