Brass instruments are appropriately described as the most powerful family of the orchestra or band. With their incredible energy and versatility, brass instruments are central figures in concert, jazz, and marching bands.

Learn and grow as a brass player with our experienced Arts+ faculty. One-on-one instruction ensures that you get exactly the kind of attention you need to be successful. Arts+ faculty are ready to help you unlock your musical potential — regardless if you’re just starting to learn or are ready to take your playing to the next level.

Our brass students can learn in a variety of styles to match their interest. Students interested in jazz, blues, and rock can take part in Arts+ gigs throughout the city at local venues. Those who prefer classical styles have the opportunity to showcase their talents at recitals each semester with an accompanist provided.

Looking for other wind instruments such as the saxophone, clarinet, or flute? Go check out our Woodwinds section.

How young can a student start brass lessons?

Students can start on brass instruments as young as about 3rd grade, depending on the size of the student. Due to the size of the brass family instruments and the amount of breath control necessary, students typically need to be older than their peers who play violin or piano. Trumpet is a great starting point for students to learn the basics of a brass instrument before transitioning to larger instruments such as the trombone or tuba.

What if my student isn’t old enough yet?

A fantastic alternative for young children to start learning to play and read music is the recorder. Through the recorder, students will learn breath control, note reading, and other fundamental skills for later success on the larger wind instruments.
