Samuel is deeply passionate about guiding students in discovering — or rediscovering — jazz, improvisation, and instrumental technique.

Private lessons and masterclasses are available for musicians of all levels and ages. Trombone and brass players can focus on sound, stylistic versatility, and advanced instrumental proficiency. Samuel offers guidance in composition that integrates improvisation, jazz, classical, and contemporary music.
