Love your lessons. My son who is a 5th graders just started playing the in the band, he got french horn and seems pretty good at it... I told him to follow your lesson to learn a whole lot about playing french horn.. thank you so much.... great lessons...

Thank you so much! I’m glad he’s getting it. Horn can be hard in the beginning.

Ms. Jamison seems like a super laid back band teacher. Do you teach large group band or just the french horn section? I am an amateur horn player, but I miss playing every day in high school band class and in marching band.

Thanks! I like to think of myself as super laid back, but serious when it comes to learning music. I taught middle school band this past school year, but usually just sectionals with the French horns.
