Get this book!
I took a course in teaching brass instruments at the University of North Texas this past semester. Scott Whitener's book was one of the texts used in the course. I believe that anyone wishing to learn more about brass instruments would benefit from reading Scott Whitener's book. He discusses the basic concepts of brass playing, mouthpieces, trumpets, trombones, tubas, horns, baritones/euphoniums, breathing, articulation, posture, instrument care, tone production, and the historical development of brass instruments. Enjoy!

Good techniques book for those not familiar with brass instruments!
This book has great info on the various brass instruments, exercises and fingerings for the more common instruments. It is the required text for my college's Brass Techniques class for music teachers with little or no brass background. Overall a good buy, especially for those looking to get basic info before they start teaching instrumental music.

Product Description

Wind Talk for Brass provides instrumental music teachers, practitioners, and students with a handy, easy-to-use pedagogical resource for brass instruments found in school instrumental programs. With thorough coverage of the most common brass instruments - trumpet, horn, trombone, baritone/euphonium, and tuba/sousaphone - the book offers the most topical and information necessary for effective teaching. This includes terminology, topics, and concepts associated with each specific instrument, along with teaching suggestions that can be applied in the classroom. Be sure to look to the back of the book for a "Practical Tips" section, which discusses common technical faults and corrections, common problems with sound (as well as their causes and solutions to them), fingering charts, literature lists (study materials, method books, and solos), as well as a list of additional resources relevant to teaching brass instruments (articles, websites, audio recordings). Without question, Wind Talk for Brass stands alone as an invaluable resource for woodwinds! Top to learn more

Good Product
I own a lot of silver jewelry and this product has been the best so far to remove the tarnish. I had this silver beaded bracelet that was almost black, any time I would clean it with other "silver" jewelry cleaner it would become dark in a matter of weeks. Since I've had this product I have only needed to clean it once... and it's been about 3 or 4 months.It does however, leave your fingers dirty but you can easily wash it off. I also received many uses out of the cloth.

Product Description

This Is the BEST Jewelry Polishing Cloth we have tested and used for many many years. It was Originally made For Silver Cleaning and thats what it's Best at, but it will Clean Most Metals (as in your Costume Jewlery) very Well. Plus since this is the largest size they make (12" X 15"), it will work and last longer, so you'll get more for your money. Top to learn more

Effective Jewelry Polisher
This product worked better than I thought it would. There are two clothes sewn together. The inside cloth is white and is treated with some chemical to work off tarnish and other oils/buildup (you don't smell the chemical at all but their information sheet lets you know there are chemicals present). The outer blue cloth is for polishing. It worked wonderful on all of my silver jewelry, even the things that weren't real silver.Do not use this cloth on any jewelry with glued in stones as the chemicals on the white cloth cause the stones to come out.My only complaint was that it makes your fingers smudgy and a bit smelly. The dirt is visibly left behind on the white cloth but also on your fingers.Overall a good product, excellent for the $5 price tag.

Economical
These are economy-grade finger cymbals, appropriate for use with children. The tone quality is horrible, but these will do for classroom use if you are on a budget!
