HOOTCAMP
is for trumpet players like you, who want to learn from the BEST …
… to discover the secrets of productive practice, consistent progress, and effortless performance
(So you can finally live fully into your musical and professional dreams, wherever they lead you!)
April 9th, 10th, 11th
with Tom Hooten
Principal Trumpet, LA Philarmonic
Whether you’re …
a professional orchestra or military band player, looking to hone your skills, and uplevel your performance ...
in school right now, with an eye on those big auditions on the horizon (you KNOW they’re coming back!) ...
or in this purely for love, maybe coming back to playing after a break ...
… the fact that you’re here, tells me that you’re looking for something MORE.
Could be you’re ...
→ struggling to figure out what to practice day to day – and how much?! You feel so inconsistent, unmotivated, and your lack of progress is driving you nuts ...
→ coming away from every session with beat-up chops and sore muscles – if only you could play with form, efficiency and endurance (like the players you look up to!) so you wouldn’t need to factor in days of recovery after every performance ...
→ letting tension, nerves + anxiety totally sabotage your audition prep and performance ... and suck all the joy out of playing ...
If any of that feels familiar?
Then HOOTCAMP is for YOU
Over 3 value-packed days, you’ll hear from leading musicians in a whole range of KEY areas, sharing experiences and expertise that will help you see how to break the patterns and habits holding you back ...
And set you on the path to a whole new level of confidence and consistency in your musical and professional life!
Plus a live solo recital by trumpet master Tom Hooten to finish out the final day!
"COMES RIGHT THROUGH THE SCREEN"
Tom is so spirited and genuinely excited about the trumpet that his energy has no problem coming through the screen. When that's coupled with his insane talent and penchant for problem solving trumpet issues you almost forget that it's not happening in person.

"Be competitive in a major audition"
Tom Hooten has left an indelible mark on my life and career. Under Tom’s mentorship over the past few years, my practice sessions have become more organized and with clear objectives. Tom’s method for audition preparation is very methodical and gives you the best opportunity to be competitive in a major audition. I followed his method in my audition preparation and found lots of success throughout the process - ultimately winning my position in the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra. Tom's honesty as a mentor has made me a better musician, educator and person.
