Aaron was/is a natural and by his senior year, had a band teacher set him up for an audition at Greensboro (NC) College. Five years after high school graduation, he completed his full-tuition scholarship and got his teaching degree in music.
During the summers, he traveled with an older group, the O'Kaysons (famous for "I'm a girl watcher"). After the, he was an assistant professor for a while starting on his Master's degree. Then, he began teaching, and also performing.
He just recently announced that he is in his last year teaching high school band. He and his new bride are starting a company to provide talent. He has lots of contacts in and out of music.
Encourage him to follow his heart. But, put education at the top of the list of requirements. A proper foundation is necessary for any success. Aaron has not only played his trumpet and all other types of musical instruments, but he has been a conductor and composer.
Needless to say, I am a proud Papa!
