Back to Basics Warm-Ups

This chart will give your group a solid warm-up in under three minutes while focusing on the basics needed for success. Winds go through sections on long tones, articulations, lip slurs, and balance exercises while the percussion works on eighth notes on one hand, sixteenth-note drills, accent placement, rolls, and diddles. The warm-up ends in a beautiful chorale section to finish tuning, balance, and blend emphasis.
