  • Acquiring a Band Instrument for Your Child
    Acquiring a Band Instrument for your Child Rental: Don Wilson music rents new, quality band instruments that are covered under a protection program (insurance). It is a rent-to-own program. Rent prices are $25/month for a percussion kit, $30 for flute & clarinet, $45 for alto sax, $55 for oboe, tenor sax, french horn and euphonium. The rental agreement is on a monthly basis and the rental instrument can be returned at any time. PROS: new, high quality instrument, no maintenance/repair expenses, month-by-month lease, equity is often transferable to a different instrument (step-up model or complete change). CONS: usually more expensive in the long run, unpaid or delinquent accounts result in repossession. Purchase: Purchasing a band instrument can be a big investment. Parents should purchase an instrument if they are confident that their child will stick with that instrument for a considerable amount of time. There are many quality dealerships in Kentucky such as Don Wilson Music, Hurst Music and Buddy Rogers that offer school band instruments. There are also online music dealers such as Woodwind & Brasswind (http://www.wwbw.com). Used instruments are available on Craigslist and Ebay. Please beware of instruments that are exponentially cheaper than those of their competitors. These instruments are generally unable to be properly tuned, and most music repair businesses will not service them. Instruments that are offered in flashy colors are almost always of sub-par quality. Please see the table on the back of this for a listing of reputable instrument brands. PROS: less expensive overall cost than rental, quality used instruments can pose a significant savings, wide selection.

  • How Do I Get My Instrument?
    Shakopee Beginning Band How do I get my instrument? INSTRUMENT INFORMATION Shakopee Public Schools 2017-18 HOW DO I GET AN INSTRUMENT FOR MY CHILD? *JOIN US FOR OUR INSTRUMENT INFORMATION NIGHT: AT SUN PATH ELEMENTARY ON APRIL 25TH FROM 4:00-7:30. Most of our students get their instruments from one of the following options. Please read the “other instruments” section below if you are not planning on going through a recommended music store. Buying an instrument can be very intimidating! Please ask your director for assistance if you are unsure of what and where to buy. FAMILY-OWNED INSTRUMENTS If you already have an instrument at home, this would be a great, low-cost way for your child to get started in band. However, it is extremely important that your child’s instrument be in good playing condition. The older the instrument, the more likely it is that it will need some repair work before it is playable. If you are planning to have your child play a family-owned instrument, we recommend bringing it to a music repair shop for a check-up before Band Display Night on May 17 to be sure it is in good playing condition. A list of repair shops is below. ECKROTH MUSIC (651) 704-9654 GROTH MUSIC (952) 884-4772 SCHMITT MUSIC (763) 398-5035 MIDWEST BAND INSTRUMENT SERVICE (952) 884-0917 SCHOOL-OWNED INSTRUMENTS If your child chooses to play F Horn, Baritone/Euphonium, or Tuba, he/she will rent an instrument from the school. The cost is $60 per year and is non-refundable.

Ed., Jacksonville State University, 1984 B.A., Jacksonville State University, 1984 M.M., University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, 1988 September, 2009 Committee Chair: Timothy Anderson ABSTRACT This paper examines the literature for bass trombone of the late 1950s and early 1960s in order to establish Thom Ritter George’s Concerto for Bass Trombone as a pivotal work that signaled an abrupt change not only in how composers regarded the instrument, but also what technical demands were expected of players. In the first portion of this paper, music of the past is examined to show that the mechanical developments of the past had a direct influence on the music written for the instrument.

  • The Following Is a List of Trusted and Reputable Musical Instrument Brands
    BEWARE OF ISOs (Instrument-Shaped Objects) These are the cheap instrument-shaped objects found on online auctions, other internet sources, and large chain stores. Although we will refrain from mentioning specific stores, keep in mind that if you can also buy toilet paper, jeans, or tires from the store, then it is not a music store, and it will not have musically knowledgeable personnel. You get what you pay for. If it’s inexpensive, it’s not a quality instrument. A bad instrument is be harder to play in tune and with good tone quality, will likely produce a non-standard instrument sound, will not blend well in the band, will be impossible to repair correctly, and will almost always frustrate the student to the point of eventually quitting.

  • Robert Rusk May 24Th, 2000 Bloomington, Indiana
    Unapproved Draft Oral History Interview of Mr. Robert Rusk th May 24 , 2000 Bloomington, Indiana Robert Rusk Carole Nowicke -2- Tape 1, Side 1 [chat concerning recording equipment] Carole Nowicke: This is May 24th and we are interviewing Robert Rusk at the Indiana Prevention Resource Center. If you’d start by telling me where you are from... Robert Rusk: I was born in South Bend, Indiana, 25 November, 1948, which happened to be Thanksgiving Day. My father claimed he wanted to name me “Tom,” but they talked him out of it after protracted discussion. Grew up in South Bend, went to the public schools and was exposed to the band program in I think, 3rd or 4th grade (somewhere in the elementary level) and took up the cornet at that time. I played cornet for several years until I got my teeth knocked out playing baseball one night, and because I hadn’t reached the adult growth yet--the skull wasn’t its maximum growth, they made me a rather bad partial plate which would no longer support the trumpet embouchure. So my band director suggested that I might try the euphonium which I did for year, and then by 8th grade I had been switched to tuba, and apparently found a home. During high school I also played with the South Bend Symphony Orchestra, the Elkhart Symphony Orchestra, the Elkhart Municipal Band, and the skids were pretty much greased for me to come to Indiana University. I enrolled in the School of Music in the fall of 1966, and spend four interesting years here.

  • (London Nomenclature!) Modele Anglais Cornet—Forerunner of Besson's (Paris) Concertiste Model, and Thence the Modern Cornet
    362 HISTORIC BRASS SOCIETY JOURNAL Figure 14. Besson Desideratum (London nomenclature!) modele anglais cornet—forerunner of Besson's (Paris) Concertiste model, and thence the modern cornet. Paris (92 rue d'Angouleme), serial no. 7125 (early 1870s); bell length 12'12" (ca. 32.4 cm.); restoration by Frank Griesemann; authors coll. ELDREDGE 363 There were, of course, other models by other makers, but few instruments survive to lend substance to catalogue descriptions and illustrations. Many makers produced their variant versions of Courtois single-lever double-water-key and Besson single-water-key models, sometimes referring to them (not always accurately!) as their "Courtois" and "Besson" models. Some copies of Besson designs (usually, though not necessarily, cheaper instruments) eliminated the second, high/low pitch slide, and often had a soldered joint connecting the first and third 180° bends of the leadpipe. When the English firms of Hawkes and Son, Higham, and Boosey and Company (who bought out Henry Distin in 1868) began manufacturing their own high-quality instruments, their models were patterned closely after especially Courtois, but also Besson. These models had evidently become established in the cornet-purchasing public's mind as the standard, in both form and quality, so that little deviation from the standard few designs was apparently possible up through to the end of the century. Similarly, when musicians in the United States began to abandon string-action rotary models in favor of Perinet-valved instruments, manufacturers such as Lehnert, Fiske, Conn, Boston Musical Instrument Manufactory, Standard Band Instrument Company, Missenharter, etc. likewise produced more-or-less faithful copies of Courtois and Besson instruments.

  • E Ledgers & Serial Number Books
    LOOKING BACK BY KEN DROBNAK e Ledgers Serial Number& Books of Frank Holton & Company Researchers will be evaluating the information in these books for years. When may they be available for everyone else? ollectors and musical instrument researchers commonly set Further, “dates may not be consecutive due to different finish types up searches on Craigslist, eBay and other websites looking being interspersed throughout the list, which would suggest that orders for that new “find.” Late last year, a 1906 Holton euphonium could not be added chronologically to the ledgers.” Another issue is that was listed on eBay for a starting bid of one hundred dollars random entries were added outside of the original time span, such as Cplus shipping. Thoughts of, “Could that be one of the first Holton in Image 2. This page shows instruments manufactured in 1900, though euphoniums?” ran through my mind. The picture on the seller’s webpage matched the style of early Holton euphoniums and the serial number, there is a flute sale noted from 1940 (or is it 1946?). 2289, indicated a 1906 date. That seemed a bit late to be “one of the first” The first euphonium listed in the ledgers is number 979, shown in Holton euphoniums. But how can any collector or researcher confirm an Image 3. The first tuba listed, which is at the museum, is number 1020, instrument’s age? There are several websites with Holton serial number shown in Image 4. By now, you might be wondering what is listed as lists and estimated dates of manufacture, but the original ledgers would number 001; unfortunately for our discussion today, the lowest number be the authoritative source.
