TESTIMONIALS
FOR THE COURSE "BONE BASICS: Intuitive Foundations at the Trombone"
DOUGLAS BURDEN
Bass Trombone, Canada's National Arts Centre Orchestra (rtd)
Your deep radio voice and good quality microphone and recording techniques allow for a continuum of consistency for the student viewer."
CHRISTOPHER BARRETT
London-Based Tuba Soloist and Artistic Director of The Ensemble of the Golden Bough
"The first thing I noticed about the Bone Basics Course is that students end up playing by ear without even thinking about it.
Nick has created exercises which feel natural on the trombone and lay the groundwork for a much more intuitive approach to the instrument generally, whether you are playing by ear or reading the dots!"
PABLO RUIZ HENAO
Bass Trombonist, Christ Church Symphony Orchestra

"He is very clear to explain how to achieve the notes, how to breath and how to hold your body in a safe way to ensure you have many years of joy at the instrument."
OLE HERMAN LARSSON
HOBBY TROMBONIST, NORWAY
"This is really a great course! The breathing lessons and exercises are really great. For me the most 'value for money'."
PATRICK
HOBBY TROMBONIST, GERMANY
"You learn the position of each sound, and you're able to develop a feeling for the sounds individually and then eventually together."

"I can't praise Nick's Online Academy course "BONE BASICS" highly enough. It is a logical, step by step walk through of the most important "need to knows" to get your trombone playing off to a flying start - or act as an invaluable reminder of the fundamentals of playing for more seasoned players.
The course modules are quite simply the next best thing to being in the same room as Nick. Each concept is explained in a simple, clear and concise manner supported by excellent demonstrations by Nick. Bravo Nick for an exciting new addition to trombone pedagogy."
