Introduction Vamoosh Music’s range of tuition books is the perfect solution for group and individual learning for a range of string, woodwind and brass instruments. Thoughtfully presented with engaging backing tracks, the format has proved to be a huge success, selling over 100,000 copies since its launch in 2010. Meet the Author Thomas Gregory is the creator and composer of the Vamoosh series. In a desire for new material that would inspire his young string students, Thomas began writing a wealth of accessible and motivating pieces that would form the basis of Vamoosh. Thomas studied cello at the Guildhall School of Music in London before continuing his studies in the US where he lived for four years. He continues to perform regularly as soloist and chamber musician. What People Say About Vamoosh… “Thank you for changing my world as an educator, I have fun, my students have fun and we all are making music with a new found excitement!” “I love the diversity of styles and genres… Showing pupils that learning can be fun and rewarding right from the start is so crucial” “The Vamoosh music books offer a huge variety of both accessible and challenging pieces that are engaging for the beginner to the intermediate player. These books have transformed our Wider Opportunities projects at Kent Music.”
