Teaching is a thing I enjoy doing just as much as playing.
I consider myself fortunate to have had great teachers
myself from an early age on.
The last years I have been teaching at the Royal
Conservatory in The Hague. I have taught jazz ensembles,
rhythmical solfège, improvisation and jazz trumpet. As a
coach I have also been specializing in the mental attitude
aspects of becoming a professional. From oktober 2008 I
will start teaching jazz composition as well.
I have also been teaching vocal jazz groups at het
Koorenhuis. As a guest I have taught jazz trumpet at the
conservatories of Rotterdam and Utrecht and workshops in
Germany (Erlangen) together with Ack van Rooyen and Allan
Praskin, and at the technical university of Delft.
I am available for workshops, guest teaching at music
schools and private lessons. My ideas and methods are
beneficial to all instrumentalists and singers, not just
horn players.
Please contact me to set up a lesson or workshop.
