Dr. Reynolds is always happy to set up a trial lesson with any students who are interested in attending the University of Oklahoma! Many students sign up for trial lessons as early as their junior year in high school. To set up a trial lesson, you can email Dr. Reynolds through wmreynolds@ou.edu to see what days/times work for the both of you. It’s never too early or too late to see if OU is the right fit for you!
One of the biggest questions when it comes to trial lessons is: How do I come prepared for my lesson? All you need to do is come with your horn and anything that you have been preparing! It can be anything from All-State etudes, excerpts, solos, large ensemble music, etc. Last but definitely not least, bring your wonderful self! Dr. Reynolds wants to get to know you not only as a horn player, but as a person!
Lastly, don’t be afraid to ask about observing/playing in other ensembles as well! We as a studio would love to get to know any prospective students by grabbing lunch, playing in horn ensemble, sitting in a large ensemble, etc.!
If you have any more questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to us via our Contact Us page! We look forward to making music with you!
