Fall FREE Physical details

Private Lessons
Private Lessons are essential for musicians. There are many times we hear "I wish I can sound like that". They sound that way because they take private lessons! Baldwin Wallace has an AMAZING music department with an OUTSTANDING private lessons program. We need to take full advantage of this opportunity! Click HERE for details!!!!
Time to start thinking about summer band camps!
There are a lot of summer opportunities for Band students. Baldwin Wallace, and Wooster have amazing camps to name a few. If interested in pursuing a summer musical event, talk to Mr. B!

Tri-M
What is Tri-M?
Tri-M is short for Modern Music Masters. It is an honors society for musicians. If you are interested in joining, you must be performing at the top of your ability regularly and always providing help for other students and directors. For more answers, ask Mr. B!
Your instrument needs an oil change and new tires!!!
Yes, you read that correctly. An instrument is very much like a car. Every 3,000 miles (one school year for brass, 1 marching season for woodwinds) your instrument needs a tune up. Take it to a music store for maintenance, so your instrument is ALWAYS in good working order.
Instrument Maintenance
HERE are some excellent videos on how to keep your instrument in good quality working order.
Listening Lab
To really know how to do something, it is most often better to watch first. In our case (being musicians), we must listen to as much music as possible. You should be listening to professional soloists of your instrument, and listen to professional Bands (Tokyo Kosei for example) performing you concert music. Tonal Energy Tuner has a wonderful website that has perfect example of professional instrumental soloists for any listener
