WHY USE RESONANCE TRAINERS?

ACHIEVING A SUPPORTED RESONANT TONE IN YOUR BAND HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER!

a faster more efficient way to teach air flow and articulation!

Use With the Entire Band!

  • Provide all wind band instruments with a visual way to understand their air stream.
  • Students see how air is used for tone production, dynamics and articulation.
  • Provide a specific air goal for faster retention of learning and building muscle memory.
  • Students are active in monitoring their progress.
  • Keep students focused on a target.
  • You can vary intensity of airflow by changing resistance.
  • Allow low brass to have a modified air flow to facilitate slow lip vibrations for learning low register.
  • Save time in class. Director can see who needs individual help without hearing everyone one at a time.
  • Help with all air related concepts. Provides constant feedback.

Work on Multiple Areas With One Tool!

1. Air/Breathing

  • Lets students see results of air flow.
  • Build air awareness through basic breath exercises.
  • Students can feel muscles work as they activate air flow.
  • Shows brass that air velocity must increase for upper range to support embouchure.
  • May be used to strengthen breathing mechanism.

2. Resonance

  • Sets visual representation of air flow to produce a resonant tone.
  • Builds muscle memory of what it feels like to produce a resonant tone with consistent air flow.
  • Focus on different ranges.  Increase resonance and achieve better intonation in upper brass range.
  • Get more feedback on your flexibility and long tone exercises.

3. Tonguing/Articulation

  • Students and teacher can see immediately if air flow stops during articulation.
  • Students can feel and see the physical difference between legato, staccato, and slur.
  • Develop the proper air stream for double tonguing right from the start.  Keep the air flowing on the second syllable.
