To the Band or Orchestra Director:

Joining my trumpet studio will make your student a more valuable member of your organization. He or she will receive a thorough grounding in both musical and physical fundamentals. They will establish regular and efficient practice habits and feel in control of their progress. I will expose them to a broad palette of music in printed and recorded form, and help them to understand that music should be a growing part of their lives beyond the high school years. The serious and open attitude I work to foster in my students will make your ensemble member an initiative taker, an example, and a leader in your organization. I make it clear to my students that music making is about human interaction and human respect.



Director Jim Koch's Recommendation
