Instructions: Tune each section of the band separately beginning with the saxophones. Then have the trombones
tune followed by the trumpets. Ideally, the trombone should get the reference pitch from the saxes. The trumpet
section would then receive their reference pitch from the trombones. (However, feel free to re-sound the original
piano pitch with the saxophones use in the beginning.)

Trombone 1 Jazz Ensemble Warmups David Caffey

Instructions: Tune each section of the band separately beginning with the saxophones. Then have the trombones
tune followed by the trumpets. Ideally, the trombone should get the reference pitch from the saxes. The trumpet
section would then receive their reference pitch from the trombones. (However, feel free to re-sound the original
piano pitch with the saxophones use in the beginning.)
