Episode 4 (Pedagogy) Meet Russ Deluna
Meet Russ Deluna. He is not a trombonist. He’s a double-reed guy. A really good one, in fact. So good that he recently won a position as English Hornist with the San Francisco Symphony.
In this episode, Russ shares his inspiring story with us. He has been a busy freelancer around Atlanta for more than 15 years. Now, he hit the big time!
His formula for success: 1) Hard work (PRACTICE!) 2) Persistence 3) Stay “teachable” (always maintain your musical curiosity and treat every playing opportunity as a chance to learn and grow)
We hope you enjoy this interview and we’d all like to offer Congratulations to Russ and his family. Good things continue to happen to good people!
