Introducing my new clinic:
“Ear on the Prize: A Holistic Approach to Brass Instruction”
Ear on the Prize is adaptable to all ages and levels of playing from beginner to college/adult. Incorporating my natural learning teaching philosophy, I will help participants understand the basics of brass sound, and how to effectively utilize air, ear, and imagination to make beautiful music.
“Lauren is a master teacher who is able to connect with students to make learning deep and fun. Her knowledge of brass pedagogy is vast, allowing her to address many issues and she does so in creative and engaging ways.’ -Paul Kile, Director of Bands, Edina High School

She communicated in a clear and effective manner with all of the students.
