• Materials and Supplies

     

    All band students need the book, Breeze Easy Book 1, (for their instrument).

     

    All students must come to lessons with the following supplies:

    Pencil

    Folder

    Practice sheet:  completed and initialed by a parent

    Breeze Easy Book 1 

     

    Each instrument has its own needs.  They are listed below:

    FLUTE:                 handkerchief

    OBOE:                   extra reeds (I like the Jones brand Medium)

    CLARINET:          reeds (strength 2 ½) and a reedguard

    SAXOPHONE:      reeds (strength 2 ½) and a reedguard

    TRUMPET:           valve oil, slide grease, small cloth

    FRENCH HORN:  valve oil, slide grease, small cloth

    TROMBONE:       SLIDE oil, slide grease, small cloth

    EUPHONIUM:      valve oil, slide grease, small cloth

    PECUSSION:       Sticks, percussion "kit", bell mallets

    As the first part of the curriculum is instrument assembly, care and maintenance, it is important for you to get these supplies immediately!

     

    There are local dealers of these supplies:

    D and M Music in Pleasant Valley                 635-1120

    Paul Effman Music                                         452-8528
