PRIVATE LESSONS

Erick now offers private one-on-one instruction both in-person (in the Rochester, NY area) and online via ZOOM. If you’d like to schedule a lesson, simply fill out the contact form and we’ll be in touch with next steps.

While Erick maintains a busy full-time schedule, most people are able to find a lesson time that works within a few days.

Lesson rates are $60 for 60 minutes or $80 for a 90-minute session.

NOTE: There are discounts/bundles available for those who want to schedule 3 or more sessions

Erick has a small number of spots open for students who wish to study with him weekly for a lengthier time span, such a whole semester or year. Subject to audition/interview to make sure it’s the right fit. Let us know if this interests you!

Brass players from the Rochester area, all ages. Interested in playing music, building community, and having fun while building connections. Learn intrinsic and extrinsic values through music like the discipline to practice everyday, do breathing exercises, problem solving, audiating, singing, listening, etc.

Music has been a part of every aspect of my life. It has taught me about discipline and responsibility, but also about love, community, psychology, physiology, and the ways people connect with one another. The more I learn about music, the more I realize that learning never ends. As a professional trombonist and educator, I want to share that lifelong process of discovery with others. I believe high-quality music performance and education should be accessible, supportive, and meaningful. Through my work as a performer and teacher, I strive to create environments where people feel safe to learn, take risks, develop their own voices, and build lasting relationships with music.
