  • Tuba Parts of the Tuba
    Instrument Care: Tuba Parts of the Tuba Maintenance Equipment: Valve oil, soft cloth, mouthpiece brush, slide grease, silver polishing cloth (for silver instruments only), cleaning snake Oiling Valve: 1. Unscrew the valve cap and pull the piston straight out of the valve casing until about half of the valve piston is exposed. 2. Apply a few drops (5-10) of valve oil on the piston. 3. Slowly, rotate the valve around and up and down a little to spread out the oil. Return the piston into the valve casing, making sure that the valve guide fits into the slot inside the valve casing. After the valve cap is tightened firmly, move the piston up and down a few times. The piston is the most important part of the instrument. Never treat the pistons roughly, drop the piston, or let the piston fall, etc. If the piston becomes damaged or dented, never return it to the valve casing and contact Mr. Petersen as soon as possible Daily Cleaning: Empty water key before packing up. Wipe outside of horn with a soft cloth to remove finger prints. If you do not do this, your instrument will tarnish and discolor. Oil valves when necessary. Rinse/wash out mouthpiece often, especially if you have been sick. Monthly: • Mouthpiece: Wash mouthpiece with warm water, mild soap, and brush. Wash your mouthpiece often, especially if you have been sick. Dry and be careful not to drop. • Tuning Slides: Check your tuning slides to see how easily they move. If they are stiff, apply a little slide great to the slide.

  • Casing & Piston Problems – Approaches to Repair
    Casing & Piston Problems – Approaches to Repair Evaluating/Diagnosing Problems Tolerances Removing Stuck Pistons Using Ground Casing Mandrels Using Brass Laps Other Casing Repair Tools Straightening Bent Pistons Truing Out-of-Round Pistons Sluggish Valve Action Monel Piston Staining Loosening Stuck Aluminum Valve Stems Casing Thread Repair Valve Jobs Porting Piston Valves Other Casing Problems Valve Oils MN State College – SE Technical Section 3: 7 Band Instrument Repair Program www.southeastmn.edu ©John Huth The key to successful and speedy piston and casing repairs lies in correctly diagnosing problems. Those problems that can slow or stop a valve include: Dirt and Debris Valve Corrosion Casing Dents Stress at Casing Knuckles o Mis-aligned tuning slides o Bent Bell Bows/Tails (trumpets/cornets) o Body Bends Casing Thread Problems Bent Valve Stems Bent Pistons Out-of-Round Pistons Valve Guide Problems Valve Guide Slot Burrs Improper Cross–Hatch on the Valve Surface Improper Valve Fitting Tolerances When measuring diameters of pistons casings, expect to find tolerances ranging from .001” - .0015” on student level brasswinds (this means that on any one side of the piston, there would be .0005” - .00075” of space). On professional brasswinds, tolerances can be between .0005” - .0001” ((this means that on any one side of the piston, there would be .00025” - .0005” of space). A typical piece of paper is approximately .003” thick. It should be noted that when tolerances exceed .0015” between the piston and casing (measuring diameter), the instrument is leaking enough where performance will suffer, even when heavier-viscosity valve oils are used. Evaluating/Diagnosing Problems Inspection separates the pros from the amateurs and can save much time and effort resulting in a lower charge to the customer.

  • HOW to BUY a EUPHONIUM by Mark Kellogg
    HOW TO BUY A EUPHONIUM By Mark Kellogg The euphonium is, without a doubt, the unsung hero of the brass family. Whether we are enjoying its beautiful solo passages from British band literature, a tuneful counter-melody in a Sousa march, or the imposing presence it provides in orchestral works like Gustav Holst's masterpiece "The Planets," the euphonium possesses a singing, noble tone quality that has intrigued the imaginations of composers and audiences for years. In fact, the rough translation of the word "euphonium" is "pleasant sounding." Never has an instrument's name more aptly described its finest qualities. Different Types of Instruments Although sometimes played as a doubling instrument by trombonists because of the similarity of mouthpiece size, the euphonium is actually a member of the tuba family. Some composers and musical cultures even refer to the euphonium as a tenor tuba. The euphonium can best be described as a large bore conical instrument (like the tuba or French horn) with four piston valves. Some European instrument makers manufacture rotary valve instruments, but in the United States we see piston valves almost exclusively. The first three valves are operated with the right hand, and the fourth valve, found on the side of the instrument, is manipulated by the left hand. Most professional instruments are referred to as "compensating instruments," meaning that they are equipped with an extra set of tuning tubes that extend out from the back of the valve section. These extra tubes aid the somewhat flawed pitch of the euphonium (or any valve instrument) and enable the performer to play with a keener sense of intonation.

  • Band Supply List
    Instrument Recommendation List As a parent investing in your child’s music education, it is very important to invest in a quality musical instrument. So called “bargain” instruments, available online or at discount stores, may seem tempting; however, experience has proven over and over again that these instruments are truly no “bargain” at all. Most often, the low price is the result of poor workmanship and lower quality materials. These instruments usually break more easily and are difficult, sometimes impossible, to repair. In many cases, they cannot be played in tune and the quality of the sound they produce is very poor. It is disheartening to see a child’s enthusiasm for music destroyed by an instrument that does not allow them to reach their full potential. A poor quality instrument also affects the overall sound of the band, tarnishing the experience for all. It is with these concerns in mind that we provide you with this list of recommended band instrument brands and accessories. I have found over the years that these instruments are durable, easy to repair, and will give your child the best opportunity to succeed as a young musician. (Brands in bold are brands we particularly like for that instrument.) If the instrument you are considering is not listed here, ask the seller for the instrument specifications and consult with the band director before you rent or buy. Flute : Gemeinhardt, Armstrong , Yamaha, Jupiter French horn: School Provided Oboe : Yamaha, Selmer Trombone/Baritone: Yamaha, Conn, King, Jupiter Clarinet: Leblanc, Buffet, Selmer , Yamaha, Jupiter Tuba: School Provided Saxophone: Yamaha, Selmer Trumpet: Selmer/Bach, Yamaha, King Percussion Practice Kit – Ludwig, Pearl, Vic Firth, Yamaha Snare and Bell Kit.

  • Brass Instrument Cleaning Instructions Exclusively for Trumpet, Trombone, French Horn, Baritone/Euphonium and Tuba
    Brass Instrument Cleaning Instructions Exclusively for Trumpet, Trombone, French Horn, Baritone/Euphonium and Tuba CAUTION: Never use hot or boiling water to wash instruments. Avoid harsh chemicals. Warm water and a mild soap/detergent are recommended. Suggested Supplies (maintenance kits are available) Warm water Mild soap detergent (dish washing liquid works great) Valve oil (valve instruments only) Tuning slide grease or Vaseline Slide Cream/oil (lubricant for trombone only) Flexible cleaning brush (long snake-like wire with brushes on end) Valve Casing brush (short brush, wide bristles- valve instruments only) Lint free cloth/towel Mouthpiece brush (optional) TRUMPET 1. Take instrument apart Lay out a towel to place tuning slides, caps and valves upon. Position parts on towel carefully in a way that will remind you where to put them back when you are done (especially valves). Always depress valves when removing slides from instrument to avoid air pressure build up, which can fatigue metal. Removing valves first can simplify the process. Carefully remove all slides, clamps and valves. Handle with care — one dent can result in costly repairs. If a slide or cap is frozen in place, DO NOT FORCE. Take to a qualified repair shop for removal. Remember: Brass is thin and easy to dent/bend. 2. Wash instrument/pieces Submerse the instrument in warm soapy water. A large sink, basin or even a bathtub works well. While under water, instrument may be cleaned out with a long flexible cleaning brush. Be sure to rinse well before reassembling. Individually clean each slide, cap and valve in warm soapy water.
