St. John's Music Beginner Instrument Workshop

Hello everyone!

I am very excited to announce that I will be putting on a workshop for beginner clarinet and saxophone students on October 5th, 2013 at St. John's Music. This workshop is for those brand new instrumentalists who are in the process of learning their instruments and will provide them with tips and tricks to help them get started. 

There are two separate workshops - one for clarinet students at 10am, Saturday morning, and one for saxophone students at 12pm on Saturday afternoon. 

If there is anyone you know who may be interested in attending, please pass along the information. Anyone and everyone is invited to attend! And remember, this is a free clinic! All you need to do is show up!

Topics to be covered include:
- how to put your instrument together properly
- correct cleaning and maintenance of your instrument
- what additional supplies you may need for your instrument
- how to hold your instrument
- how to blow and form your embouchure
- how to play your first notes
- how to play your first scale (if time!)

Additionally, I will discuss the value of private music lessons and be on hand afterward to answer any questions from students and parents. If students do not have an instrument, the amazing staff at St. John's Music will be available to discuss rentals and purchases.

This is a fantastic opportunity for new students to get a jump on learning their band instruments for the year. Feel free to print and share the poster below with your friends, family and students!
