I studied with Mr. Martin in 1994-1995. He preaches the gospel of Arnold Jacobs. His teaching style is to concentrate on fundementals such as sound, rhythm, and style. I would advise you buy a really good metronome.

While studying with him I learned a good deal about the dignity of music and learned to respect it much more. They take brass playing in Chicago very seriously. You will get the opportunity to hear some incredible performances from faculty, visiting artists, and the local musicians on Chicago.

All of the faculty at Northwestern are world class artists in their own rights. If you can find the funding to attend and are accepted into the school and Mr. Martin's studio, then I would say go for it.
