I'm one of those crazy horn players that has chosen to be a middle
school band director. I have my own opinions on what types of
instruments and mouthpieces should be used for beginning horn players,
but I'm interested to know the opinions of everyone else out there.
Perhaps another
I start most of my beginner students on an appropriately sized horn - either
double or F. The first lessons are without instrument: singing, matching
pitches and intervals, recognizing intervals that I play on horn and piano,
and buzzing. Breathing exercises also are important at this time.
I highly recommend the Conn 6d, preferably an elkhardt if you can find one.
If one is not avaible, get some Yamaha 567's. They play really well for the
price tag and are a much smaller wrap than the 6d (smaller players*).
