Thanks very much to everyone who has responded with advice so far. Your consensus is that my friend should find a good trumpet teacher. So I'll re-ask part of my question: any recommendations for a decent trumpet teacher for an adult student? I've already recommended to my friend that he talk to the Upper Valley Music Center (a couple string teachers there are members of our congregation).
