Too Much Tubing to Tune: Addressing Intonation Issues in your Low Brass Section |
Presented by: Eric High, De Pere, WI

Presider: Jim Scheuer, Owen |
 The trombone, bass trombone, euphonium, and tuba have intonation problems that are unique to each instrument and must be taken into account during score study, sectionals, and ensemble rehearsals. This session will address some "quick fixes" as well as more elaborate methods for keeping your low brass section in tune.
