Trumpet

This 10-year-old wonder began his music tuition in church at the tender age of six. He played the recorder and then moved on to master the trumpet at the age of eight. His father taught him by showing him YouTube video clips. Now, only two years later, he is the first trumpeter for the Rhenish Primary Orchestra. He recently joined the trumpet development workshops at Paul Roos Gymnasium and was asked to perform in their jazz concert. His mother, Glynnes, is very proud of her talented son.
