My Project

My students are in the crucial beginning stages of learning an instrument. Having the tools and supply's necessary for performing are vital for our students. Most of the instruments require a reed, a thin piece of wood, in order to play. Reeds are critical for several instrument types such as clarinet, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, etc...

Help my students by supplying my classroom with reeds and mouthpieces to perform their instruments.

My students and I found two instruments that we do not have mouthpieces for. This instrument is called an alto clarinet, an instrument that is not common within band repertoire. My students are so intrigued by these instruments that I have many on a waiting list waiting to give it a try. I would love for my students to have an opportunity to try an instrument that is an uncommon.
