Experienced tutor in Trumpet, Matthew offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

I've known Matthew for a number of years now (close to 15 years), both as a fellow trumpet player and personal friend. As a freelance trumpeter in Los Angeles, I can say that he ranks up among a number of professionals in the area in terms of his overall understanding of the trumpet (mechanics and techniques), as well as concepts in achieving success in the upper register. Any student looking to improve their playing would greatly benefit in studying with Matthew.

My two years of lessons with Matthew Dueppen were the two most productive years of my playing. I made such a massive increase in playing ability from where I started to where I was when we ended. He was always able to help me in anyway with a problem I was having in my playing and he was always able to teach me in a way that was very understandable. He pushed me as a player to be better and I wouldn’t be where I am now without that. The music that he had me playwould focus on areas of weakness in my playing and I would notice great improvement in those areas over time of practicing. Even on the days where I was fighting myself and frustrated he was able to make me relax and play calmly without beating myself up, I have had nothing but good experiences and memories of my time taking lessons under Matt.

I have known Mattew Dueppen for almost a year now and I can say his teaching methods are superior. He will find the places where the little details need to be worked out make a big difference. I have learned a lot from Matthew and honestly his lessons have changed my view of the trumpet and that there is more to it then just playing notes.
