What should my student practice before band camp and school?
Start with fundamental exercises (long tones, lip slurs, flow studies)
Articulation exercises
Scales! Work on as many octaves of as many scales as you can!
Read through book lines, solo material, or band music
Reeds
Reeds have a relatively limited lifespan, so if you haven't bought new ones this summer, it's time to get them!
Clarinet players should be playing on D'Addario Reserve CLASSIC reeds (They should know which strength they play).
Bass Clarinet players should be playing on D'Addario Reserve reeds, strength 3.
Saxophone players should be playing on Strength 3 Vandoren reeds (Blue Box)
Oboe and Bassoon players should contact their lesson teachers for new reeds!
Strike Force!
