BRASSWORKS

Artists: Steve Call, tuba; David Brown, trumpet; Will Kimball, trombone; Larry Lowe, horn; David Blackinton, trumpet.

All five musicians are music faculty members at Brigham Young University as well as professionally performing musicians. They will introduce each of the brass instruments and feature each in a solo selection. There is a brief and humorous demonstration of what makes the sound on a brass instrument and how students can make their own instrument. The ensemble members will take turns explaining such musical terms as pitch, melody, tempo, dynamics, tone color, and imitation. Above all, they will teach students that playing a musical instrument is fun.
