Download or read book Doubling on Woodwinds written by Mario Cerra and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doubling on Woodwinds was envisioned as a work plan for woodwind players that allows for a more efficient daily practice of their doublings. Whether your primary instrument is flute, clarinet or saxophone, this book will help you improve your skills with each instrument. Woodwind players are expected to be proficient with multiple instruments in the family, and the process of getting acquainted with them is often more tedious and cumbersome than it need be. This book is not intended to replace traditional method books for each of the instruments, but rather to complement them. My intention is to integrate the practice of several instruments and turn that into the learning process of one larger subject: the woodwind family. We will address only the most commonly used doublings in the woodwind family; flute, saxophone, and clarinet, but the concepts can be easily translated to any instrument. The basic premise is quite simple. Instead of practicing different exercises on each instrument, we will play the same phrase on all instruments, working in all keys, through the entire range of each instrument. This way of practicing makes proficiency on all instruments more accessible and less stressful. It is an efficient and organized method, which saves time and provides tangible progress.

Download or read book The Woodwinds Perform Understand Teach written by James Byo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Woodwinds: Perform, Understand, Teach provides comprehensive coverage about the woodwind family of musical instruments for prospective instrumental music teachers. What sets this book apart is its focus on how to teach the instruments. Preparing students in the how of teaching is the ultimate goal of the woodwind class and the ultimate goal of this book, which organizes information by its use in teaching beginning instrumentalists. In developing performance and understanding, pre-service teachers are positioned to learn to teach through performance—contrasted with an "old-school" belief that one must first spend much time tediously trying to understand how things work before playing the instruments. The book is organized in three parts: Preliminaries, Teaching the Instruments, and Foundations. Chapters in Teaching the Instruments are organized by instrument (flute, clarinet, saxophone, oboe, bassoon) and, within each instrument, according to how an effective teacher might organize experiences for novice learners. Basic embouchure and air stream are covered first, followed by instrument assembly, then hands and holding. Embouchure coverage returns in greater depth, then articulation, and finally "the mechanism," which includes sections on the instruments of the family, transposition, range, special fingerings, tuning and intonation, and reeds. In Foundations, topics are situated in big picture contexts, calling attention to the broad applicability of information across instruments.
