Why it matters

Strong on the instrument, unsure on the page?

Many wind players are strong on their instrument but less sure when reading new music. This class builds the music theory and listening skills behind good reading, so new pieces feel easier and rehearsals move faster.

Pulse and rhythm

Feeling a steady beat and reading rhythms accurately, the base of playing well together in a band.

Sight singing

Singing from the page to hear the music before you play it. Singing is only a training tool here, never a performance, so there is no pressure to sing well.

Intervals and listening

Recognising the distance between notes and training the ear, so tuning and phrasing improve.

Applied to band music

Every skill is used straight away on band music, so what students learn shows up in their own playing.
