Manual for teaching wind instruments
Abstract
The purpose of this manual is to create a practical teaching
guide for wind instruments. It is designed to be flexible enough
to fit any given school or band program.
This manual will be helpful to the teacher regardless of his
major instrument. Each instrument has a progressive course of
study with each step outlined for proper musical. growth.
The methods outlined create a source of supply for the right
material with name of method, author, publisher and cost.
The ideas given in the section on embouchure are only one
of many and the teacher of winds should keep this in mind. The
procedure that produces the best results for the individual is the
one to use.
It is hoped that this manual will help the wind teacher do
his job more easily and there-by be able to produce better
players.
