Richard Tione, Trumpet Doctor

I’ve been a performer and teacher since my teens first inspired by my Dad. He had a gorgeous tone and was my first teacher. I’ve been teaching privately and in the classroom for over twenty years currently i’m on staff at LaGuardia HS of Music and Art and Performing Arts in Manhattan

I’m comfortable starting students from scratch or seasoned players. I have a hands on approach, analyzing the physicality of playing. There are no mysterious to good training. My students learn what I know and become there own teachers.
