Frisco Flute or Trumpet Lessons - Flute or Trumpet Lessons Frisco

FLUTE/TRUMPET LESSONS FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS We teach private flute and trumpet lessons for all levels, and students may also add a Star Power Band for the ultimate music making opportunity. Researchers agree that learning to play an instrument improves test scores, helps students with higher math achievement, builds self confidence, improves coordination and problem-solving, increases fine motor development and much more – including fostering the basic intrinsic value of developing a love and joy for the arts and music. Performances are available for each level of study. PLUS: Join our Practice Club with weekly prizes and chances to win a local area gift certificate twice each year. PRIVATE FLUTE LESSONS Ages five through adult In a private flute lesson, the teacher has the opportunity to help the student individually for the entire lesson time, and structures each lesson personally for the student depending on their skill level and goals. We teach all styles of music, from beginning basics through baroque, classical, popular and familiar songs– you name it! Young students begin with a fife and learn all of the fingerings, breathing techniques, posture, and more concepts, learning a lot of basics before moving on to the flute (this lets the student focus on the most important aspects of playing without holding a heavy instrument). Students usually upgrade to a full size flute around the 3rd or 4th grade, or earlier with a curved mouthpiece, or if they are more physically developed at a younger age, it all depends on arm length (need to be able to reach the g# key with their pinkie finger without struggling to do so). Private flute students are welcome to perform at our Music Showcase in June (optional), take the Texas State Theory Test in May (optional) and also participate in our Rising Star Music Competition in January (optional)and Achievement Auditions (optional).
