Swedish-born world-famous trumpet player Urban Agnas began trumpet at the age of six and studied at the Swedish University of Music Ingesund (Karlstads University of Music).Having decided to live as a professional, he chose to set aside classical music and become a studio musician in Stockholm in his early twenties. At this time, he co-starred with big names such as Burt Bacharach (Carpenters "They Long to Be Far"), the biggest hit maker of the 6th century, and Swedish singer Tommy Shelberg. Despite being able to live in the pop world, he sought classical music and challenged international competitions. After winning prizes in the Munich International Music Competition and the Toulon International Music Competition, he also won the position of chief of the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra. At the same time, he founded the Stockholm Chamber Brass, which is now the world-famous brass quintet. Two years later, he was transferred to the Chief of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra and was enrolled until 20.In addition to the orchestra, he has been active all over the world, including soloists and brass quintets, and has taught mainly at the Swedish music college in order to convey the playing styles that he struggled with and developed in his own performances. Instruct students as a university professor. The focus of his instruction is the trumpet playing flow technique he developed. This playing method is to play with a comfortable breath without force in any performance scene. Through this playing style, each student develops his or her individuality. Having lived as a professional, he is a kind-hearted teacher who also supports the employment of his students. As with many students, why not dive into Germany to learn from your teacher?

■ Online lessons for preparing for entrance exams at overseas music colleges / conservatory ■


While in Japan, we will prepare for the exam with the teacher of the overseas music university / conservatory that you want. In the exam preparation lesson, the songs will be selected and the songs will be completed before the exam. Depending on the number of lessons, it generally takes at least 3 months, usually 6 months or more to finish. In addition, it is desirable to take the lesson directly with the live sound of the final check. It is also important to get used to communicating music and conversations online, as taking an examination at an overseas music university / conservatory may be an online examination or a recording examination.

・ As in Japan, the professors belonging to each music university / music institute are familiar with the examinations at overseas music universities / music institutes.
・ The songs to be taken by overseas music colleges / institutes are not individually specified, but are often roughly specified for each era, so it is very important to select the songs with the professor. The selection and performance of songs that suit (or are completely different from) your personality will differentiate you from other test takers and leave a positive impression on the examiner. The teacher may recommend (select) the test song in consideration of foreign test takers. For example, "If you select this song, you can't show the difference from the people of ..., so if you use this song (movement), the examiner will know that you have various expressions, so please do it here. How is it? "
・ Since the teacher gives lessons to the students for the purpose of "How to pass?", The pass rate usually increases. For example, "I don't think the examiner knows classical music this way, so let's fix it."
・ As a general rule, the number of lessons should be decided in consultation with the professor based on the "period from the current time to the examination" and "the customer's current level and the passing level required at the time of the examination". The longer the period, such as one year or more, the more time you can take the exam.
・ It is possible to check the playing style on a CD or Youtube, but by taking the lesson, you can understand not only the musical compatibility and personality compatibility with the teacher, but also the lesson style, "I want to be with this teacher. I want to learn. "
