same songs - keep up the good work and remember to check the listening tracks on the side of this page (or at the bottom if you are using your phone) Intermediate practice to the bottom of page 6 see Harold's note below about intervals Beginner practice to the bottom of page 8 pay attention to the orange boxes at the top of each page remember - good posture improves your playing - counting (the time signature) is important Extra info Your hands are very important when playing. You need to pay attention to how you position them to create good habits. Check the front of your books for some of that. Clarinets, Saxes and flutes- pinkies above the keys in a relaxed position. You'll need them ready to use the extra keys. Supplies Reed instruments - you should have 3 reeds on the go all the time. use them in a rotation. Throw out any cracked or chipped reeds. We recommend Rico Royal or Van Doren. These are a little cheaper by the box but they are a small investment. Music - Folders, binders or bags - You need something to transport your music in and keep it all together in good shape. We reuse the books so it would be nice if they came back to us in good condition, Cork grease - clarinets and Saxophones Slide grease - trombone valve oil - trumpet Cleaning supplies make sure you have what your instrument needs. Treat your instrument well and it should last you a life time! Instrument stands - not a necessity but nice to have.
