How brass lessons work.

Brass lessons at George's are one-on-one, 30 minutes a week, in a room on the lower level, and they work on the music your student brings home from band.

Owen McGowan teaches trombone and the rest of the brass. Chris Valerio teaches trumpet. Need the horn? It's in our school rental program, with valve oil and the method book on the shelf upstairs.

Teachers: Owen McGowan and Chris Valerio.
