Trumpet and Jazz

Thank you for reaching out and welcome to our site. We are a large studio with a belief in learning every kind of music with excellent quality at the undergraduate level.  To do so, our trumpet environment involves three to five or more hours a day of practice a day individually and with each other in a family atmosphere.   Our studio has a track record of players and teachers performing at the highest levels of our industry in many performance fields.  Feel free to email me with any questions about the trumpet studio.  Looking forward to talking with you!

Dr. Jeffery Crowell

Percussion and Jazz

Hello and thank you for your interest in the Percussion Studio at UW-Eau Claire!  My name is Dr. Crowell and I'm the percussion professor here at UWEC.  We have a large and active studio (currently at 20 members) and they participate in all types of opportunities from large ensembles (two concert bands, symphony orchestra, marching band) to chamber groups (percussion ensemble, four jazz ensembles and multiple jazz combos, contemporary music ensemble) to outside groups.  As a member of the percussion studio, you will grow musically and personally in a supportive and family environment where personal excellence is encouraged in every way possible.  I would be delighted for you to visit campus, to take a free lesson with me/talk more about your career goals and become acquainted with the studio and the program here.

Dr. Aaron Hedenstrom

Jazz Saxophone and Jazz Combos

Greetings and thank you for your interest in the saxophone studio and jazz studies area at UW - Eau Claire. As jazz saxophone and combo instructor at UWEC, I am proud to say that we offer courses in improvisation, arranging, jazz combo, and recording technology. We are also continuously expanding opportunities for students to record their own music as well as school ensembles. Saxophone students can study classical, jazz saxophone, and develop their skills and musicality to the highest level they can. We strive to be supportive, inclusive, and accommodating to all our students. I would love to meet with you, discuss the program, and tell you more about our program as I get to know your desires and goals.
