Teaching Brass from a Woodwind Perspective

Clinic Synopsis:

We often hear "I am a woodwind, how do I teach brass?" This session will provide extra tools to those who are not as familiar with brass instruments for tone production, clarity, range, and intonation, particularly during the first year of beginning band. The listener will learn to identify and apply aspects of playing all woodwind instruments that can be applied and transferred to brass playing and vice versa.
