Experienced Trombone Instructor
Emily Asher's Garden Party plays "We Find Joy!" I wrote for my students at my former Brooklyn, NY elementary school. The song is based on the school's values.
Educational Philosophy
I believe that all students deserve access to fun, rigorous, culturally responsive music education. Through a combination of inquiry-based and skill-focused approaches I empower each student to feel a sense of ownership and belonging in their musical experiences.
