Book excerpt: Daily Routines for the Student Tuba Player is a systematic approach to help student tuba players develop and maintain fundamental tuba skills. Designed to challenge students but not overwhelm them, there are nine routines: Beginning, Air, Valve Technique, Intermediate, Ear Training, Fourth Valve, Duet and Intonation, Intervals, and Advanced Routine. Each routine incorporates the following skill categories: long tones and mouthpiece buzzing, crescendo/diminuendo, flexibility, subito dynamics, resonant low playing, articulation, high range, and low warm-down. By applying these skill categories as a template to each routine, students are sure to develop all of their skills equally.
