Carmine Caruso Method with Julie Landsman

Julie Landsman's teaching style is a holistic approach that addresses the person, the music, and the instrument. Her instruction includes technical work with tone and articulation and the Caruso Method. With an emphasis on the mental and emotional aspects of performance, Landsman encourages her students to utilize meditation, visualization, and the heartfelt connection to music.

“Caruso specialized in teaching brass players to have great chops. Caruso gives you good, strong, healthy chops that work through all registers with an even sound and feel, and offers the player strength and refinement of technique,” Landsman explains in her forthright and engaging introduction to the method.

This live one-hour session will take a deeper look and answer common questions encountered in lessons 1 and 2 of the Caruso Method. Students may submit their questions ahead of time for Landsman to address in the class. Students may join the class in the Lessonface Studio in the West Village/Meatpacking district of NYC, or online over high quality video conference. A very limited number of performer seats are available, please email us separately to jess@lessonface.com if you are interested in being a performer. The class will be recorded, and enrolled students will receive lifetime access to view the course recordings.
