Brass Teacherõs Guide
Teacher’s Guide Brass ® by Robert W.Getchell, Ph. D. Foreword This manual includes only the information most pertinent to the techniques of teaching and playing the instruments of the brass family. Its principal objective is to be of practical help to the instrumental teacher whose major instrument is not brass. In addition, the contents have purposely been arranged to make the manual serve as a basic text for brass technique courses at the college level. The manual should also help the brass player to understand the technical possibilities and limitations of his instrument. But since it does not pretend to be an exhaustive study, it should be supplemented in this last purpose by additional explanation from the instructor or additional reading by the student. General Characteristics of all Brass Instruments Of the many wind instruments, those comprising the brass family are perhaps the most closely interrelated as regards principles of tone production, embouchure, and acoustical characteristics. A discussion of the characteristics common to all brass instruments should be helpful in clarifying certain points concerning the individual instruments of the brass family to be discussed later. TONE PRODUCTION. The principle of tone production in brass instruments is the lip-reed principle, peculiar to instruments of the brass family, and characterized by the vibration of the lip or lips which sets the sound waves in motion. One might describe the lip or lips as the generator, the tubing of the instrument as the resonator, and the bell of the instrument as the amplifier. EMBOUCHURE. It is imperative that prospective brass players be carefully selected, as perhaps the most important measure of success or failure in a brass player, musicianship notwithstanding, is the degree of flexibility and muscular texture in his lips.

Baritones and Euphoniums*
OpenStax-CNX module: m12650 1 Baritones and Euphoniums* Catherine Schmidt-Jones This work is produced by OpenStax-CNX and licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution License 1.0 1 Introduction Baritones and euphoniums are aerophones in the brass family. They are closely related instruments, both fairly large and with a medium-low range. They are generally not considered orchestral instruments, but are an important part of the Western band tradition. 2 The Instruments Like other instruments in the brass family, baritones and euphoniums are played by buzzing the lips against a cup mouthpiece. The air then moves through the brass tubing and leaves through the bell at the other end of the instrument. The valves change the playing length of the instrument, making it possible to play several harmonic series that together allow the instrument to play any chromatic note in its range. For more on how brass instruments work, please see Wind Instruments: Some Basics, Standing Waves and Wind Instruments, and Harmonic Series.) Baritones and euphoniums are valved brass instruments that have a range similar to the slide trombone, higher than a tuba and about an octave below the trumpet. The valved tenor-range brass instruments are a slightly confusing group of instruments. They are usually held upright, with the bell pointing either straight up or up-and-forward, but they may also be shaped like a very large trumpet, held horizontally with the bell pointing forward. They may have three, four, or sometimes even ve valves. Baritone and euphonium are recognized in Britain as being two dierent instruments, but in the U.S.

Euphonium, Baritone, Or ??? by David Werden (From
Euphonium, Baritone, or ??? by David Werden (from www.dwerden.com) When I was in high school, my parents decided to buy a new instrument for me to replace the student model I had been using. The music store showed me a top of the line King 3-valve "baritone." The salesman said it was a fine instrument, but if I was a serious player, I should spend another $80. For the extra money I would get not a mere baritone, but a genuine ***E*U*P*H*O*N*I*U*M***. When I asked what the difference was he explained that a baritone has three valves, while a euphonium has four. He also told me that a euphonium has a different bore, and sounds nicer that a baritone. I ordered the more expensive instrument. As the years passed, I learned that the only difference between those two horns was the extra valve. The salesman wasn’t trying to mislead me--he was simply as confused as most people about the difference between a baritone and a euphonium. Over the years I have heard many incorrect explanations of this difference. Some are: a euphonium has four valves, a baritone three; if it’s in a bass clef it’s a euphonium, if it’s in treble clef it’s a baritone; a baritone is little euphonium; a baritone has the bell pointed forward, a euphonium points up; and (attributed to Robert King) a euphonium is a baritone played well. This confusion of names may contribute to the somewhat anonymous nature of my chosen instrument.

RADNOR TOWNSHIP SCHOOL DISTRICT MUSIC DEPARTMENT Spring 2014
RADNOR TOWNSHIP SCHOOL DISTRICT MUSIC DEPARTMENT Spring 2014 Dear Parents, In order to better acquaint you with the beginning band music program offered in the Radnor Township School District, I present the following resume of activities available to the fifth grade students in this area of the curriculum. In fifth grade, interested students may begin the study of brass, woodwind or percussion instruments leading to participation in the 5th Grade Band. This is a sequential curriculum with the expectation to follow through with the same instrument from year to year. Choices include the flute, clarinet, oboe, bassoon, trumpet, trombone, French horn, baritone horn, tuba and percussion. Rental information will be available at a later date. From this list, the bassoon, French horn, baritone horn or tuba are be rented from the school district for a low minimal maintenance fee. Qualified students wishing to continue on these instruments beyond their first year may continue renting the school instruments. In most cases, we have enough of the larger instruments (French horn, baritone horn, tuba) to allow each student to keep an instrument at home and use another instrument in school, eliminating the problem of transporting these instruments. Because saxophone is not offered for the first year, interested students are suggested to play one year on clarinet. Then after a year of successful study on clarinet, a limited number of students may switch to saxophone for their 6th grade year. Please indicate if this is your child’s intent on the attached form when signing up. Students interested in percussion instruments will receive instruction on both drums and bells.

Instruments of the Beginning Band
Instruments of the Beginning Band The Woodwind Family Flute—The flute is a challenging instrument and is the highest-pitched instrument in the beginning band. The flute is made of silver or a silver-plated brass alloy played by blowing across an opening in one end while fingers press keys to change notes. With its clear, penetrating sound, the flute often plays the melody in band. Some advanced flute players will occasionally play the piccolo, which is an even smaller and higher type of flute. Flute players must be able to blow a lot of air with great control and follow complex directions easily. There will be about 16 flutes in the Beginning Band. Flute is highly competitive, and lessons are encouraged. Oboe—The oboe is a double reed instrument. This means that the player will blow through two tightly joined cane reeds instead of a mouthpiece to produce a brilliant and distinct sound. The oboe is a very special instrument, and only a few students will be chosen to play it. Good oboe players are hardworking and usually independent with good grades. Good oboists are highly sought by universities and colleges, often receiving substantial scholarships. About 2 students will be selected to play oboe in the Beginning Band. Piano background is helpful, and private lessons are a must. Bassoon—The bassoon is also a double reed instrument. It is the lowest member of the woodwind family and has a very dignified and majestic sound. The bassoon is a highly specialized instrument in the band, and only a select few students will be chosen to play it.
