I now offer online French Horn lessons using video conferencing. These lessons have been very successful. I have taught students on the East Coast, Mexico and South America. It takes a high speed internet line like DSL or Cable and a webcam, or better yet, a digital (firewire) camera.

Although this technology is still evolving, the sound is pretty good and the video allows me to see what you are doing and for me to demonstrate. Due to a slight delay on both ends, it is not possible to play duets. : )

These pictures are of me simulating an online horn lesson. You can see the camera to the left of the monitor in the top picture. My most successful sessions have been Mac to Mac, but the Mac to PC thing may improve soon. I am willing to try to work out a Mac to PC connection but I have found that they are less reliable, if they work at all. Contact me about getting the right settings on your PC.

I can also accept a Quicktime or mpeg video of your playing and send back a Quicktime movie of analysis and suggestions for you. These will be much like the "Buzzy Buzz" clip on the Video Page.

The video should have some closeups of your embouchure as well as more distant shots of your breathing, etc. I have used this technique with peo-ple who don't have high speed lines for video cnferencing.

If you have my book, I can help you use that better, too.

I accept PayPal for payment.
