Saxophone, Flute and Clarinet Lessons
As a beginning woodwind student you will first learn
how to make a sound on your instrument. If you are playing the
saxophone or clarinet, you will learn how to blow into
your mouthpiece using the correct mouth position so
that the reed vibrates. If you are playing the flute,
you will learn how to correctly blow over your
mouthpiece to produce sound. Proper breathing
techniques and posture are stressed in your lessons
so that you are able to produce a clear, consistent sound.
Tuning, fingering technique and music reading skills are
also important aspects of your lessons.
More advanced students may focus on further developing their technique and on interpreting woodwind repertoire representing a variety of styles. Students who are enrolled in their school music program are encouraged to bring their school music to their lessons at The Music Studio.
Method books include:
- Jazz Conception for Saxophone
- Galper Clarinet Method
- Beginner's Book for the Flute
- Rubank Selected Duets for Saxophone
