Above Standards   

Music Lessons

My name is Alonzo Ryan, Jr., I am 18 years old and I have been playing trumpet for 7 years. I am currently residing in Plainsboro, NJ and am a senior in high school. I started off studying Classical trumpet, but I quickly realized that my heart was in Jazz. I currently study both and I have been involved with several groups associated with either genre. 


Although I am young, I am very enthusiastic about teaching and I have a lot to offer. I offer private and group lessons in both classical and jazz. I also offer music theory, and improvisation. If you are outside of the Tri-State area, I also offer Skype lessons.


Rates(negotiable):

  • Private 1-hour lesson: $40

  • Private 30-minute lesson: $25

  • Group 1-hour lesson: $15

  • Group 30-minute lesson: $10
