For TUBA students:
If your student was selected to play Tuba, he/she needs a silver plated Tuba
mouthpiece (no plastic mouthpieces) and a beginning band book: Essential
Elements 2000, Book 1. Fayette Academy will provide a tuba for your student,
as these tubas tend to be prohibitively expensive.
All Beginners:
If you purchase an instrument over the summer, it is important that the
student NOT attempt to assemble or play the instrument until students learn
to do those things properly in band class. Bad habits are often difficult to
break, so parents should help their student resist the urge to play or even hold
the instrument until they can be instructed how to do so by Mr. Hinson or a
private lesson teacher.
For the parents that would like the convenience of renting an instrument from
a vendor here at Fayette Academy, a horn drive will be scheduled near the
beginning of the school year with a local music store. More specific information
as to date and time will be forthcoming.
Please keep in mind: While good deals can certainly be found on in the
Internet, such as sites like eBay, I recommend parents use caution, as many
instruments offered are of inferior quality or need quite a bit of repair work to
be made in playable condition. Please purchase/rent one of the brands I have
listed, and do so from a reputable vendor. Many music stores that rent also
have maintenance plans available, and I HIGHLY recommend this as
well. Local recommended stores include (but are not necessarily limited to):
Amro, Lane Music, Martin Music, and Saint Fishys. Please avoid purchasing
instruments from “big box” retailers such as Sam’s Club, Wal-Mart, or Costco,
as these businesses often sell inferior brand instruments of questionable
quality that are simply not durable or reliable.
It is important that a beginner has an instrument that functions properly to
avoid frustration and discouragement when first learning how to play. The last
obstacle a beginner needs is having to contend with leaky pads, dented slides,
misaligned keys, sticky valves, or a whole host of other issues that would make
it even more difficult, if not all-out impossible, to learn to play the instrument.
It is also important to keep in mind that at this young age, the instrument
needs to be robust enough to take the rigors of day-to-day 6th grade use. The
brands I have listed above are generally well made and of good quality. Used
instruments of the brands I have listed are fine, as long as they are in good
playable condition. If you have a used instrument and are unsure as to its
condition, please contact Mr. Hinson to set up a time that I can examine it and
make an assessment.
