Listening Assigment

Band Listening Assignment

Having a great tonal concept is pivotal to sounding great on our instrument. Imagine trying to paint the sun set if you have never seen one. Even with a great description from someone who has seen it, words fall short. The same is true for music, as musician we need to know what a great sound on our instrument is. And the only way to do that is by listening to great performers on our instrument.

Find two recordings of professional musicians on your instrument and complete the questionnaire below.
