To discover ‘the correct airstream to play your instrument: + Place the palm of your hand near your mouth. * inhale deeply through the comer of your mouth, Keeping your shoulders steady. Your waist should expand like a balloon. + STowiy whisper tahas you gradually exhale air into your palm. ‘The air you feel isthe airstream. It produces sound through the instru- ment. Your tongue is lke a faucet or valve that releases the airstream. Producing The Essential Tone “Buzzing” through the mouthpiece produces your tone. The buzz is a fast vibration inthe center of yout lips. Your embouchure (hm -ah-shure i your mouth's position on the mouthpiece of the instrument. A good em- bouchure takes time and effort, so carefully follow these steps for success: BUZZING + Moisten your lips. + Bring your lips together as if saying the letter*m.” + Relax your jaw to separate your upper and lower teeth, + Form a slightly puckered smile to firm the comers of your mouth, + Direct a full airstream through the center of your lips, creating a buzz. + Buzz frequently without your mouthpiece. MOUTHPIECE PLACEMENT + Form your“buzzing’ embouchure. + Center the mouthpiece on your lips. Your teacher may, suggest a slightly different mouthpiece placement. + Take a full breath through the comers of your mouth. + Start your buzz with the syllable "tab." Buzz through the center of your lips keeping a steady, even buzz. Your ips provide a cushion for the mouthpiece. MOUTHPIECE WORKOUT Using only the mouthpiece, form your emibouchure carefully. Teke a deep breath without raising your shoulders. Taking Care OF Your Instrument before putting your Instrument back nits case after playing. do the folowing: + Use the water key to empty water from the instrument, Blow ai through it + Remove the mouthpiece. Once a week wash the mouthpiece with warm tap seater Dry thoroughly. + Wipe of the instrument with a clean soft oth. Return the instrument tos case. Tuba valves occasionally need oiling. To oil your tuba valves: + Unscrew the valve at the top of the casing. + Liftthe valve half-way out of the casing, + Apply a few drops of special brass valve oll to the exposed valve. + Carefully return the valve to its casing.
