Welcome to HAH Brass Studios!
I offer private lessons for all brass instruments, both in-person and virtual, for beginner, intermediate, and advanced students.
My goal is to create a welcoming, safe, fun, and rigorous environment for students to develop as musicians, people, and life-long learners.
About Me
Mr. H. A. Hoffman
Hello! My name is H. A. Hoffman.
In 2019, I started a private lesson studio in the Tri-Cities and have been teaching beginners, intermediate, and advanced students since. Through the beginning stages, I was a high school band director but have since transitioned to teaching privately full time!
My students have gone on to perform at the top of their ensembles and have participated in groups such as the Tennessee All-East and All-State honor bands; several world-class drum and bugle corps including Spirit of Atlanta, Carolina Crown, Music City, Boston Crusaders, and Phantom Regiment; and the Parris Island Marine Band. Many have also continued playing through college, earning scholarships to play in their respective ensembles.
I received my Master of Music degree in Performance from Middle Tennessee State University and my Bachelor of Music degrees in Music Education and Instrumental Performance from Western Carolina University.
Outside of teaching, I am always working to refine my playing. As a freelancer, I have performed with several regional orchestras including Chattanooga, Huntsville, Hendersonville, Symphony of the Mountains, and as a session musician at Ocean Way Studios in Nashville.
