Brass & Wind Project Open House

Join us for our FREE Open House to learn more about the Brass & Wind Project, a program for students grades 3rd-6th who are interested in learning the musical skills essential to playing a band instrument.

In weekly large and small group classes, fundamental skills will be taught, allowing the student to thrive in a low-pressure and supportive environment. Skills taught include:

Body awareness skills: breathing, blowing, posture and how to properly hold an instrument.

Executive & technical: embouchure formation, finger control & dexterity, and basic tone production.

Musicianship skills: singing, playing, moving, improvising, creating music of all kinds, and reading music notation alone and with others.

The skills learned will prepare them for participation in a traditional band program and allow them to transition to playing a full-sized band instrument with relative ease.

No prior experience with instrumental music is required. Students are taught by a Master Teacher and supported by Temple University undergraduate music education and performance instrumental interns.
