Synopsis

Whitehead (music, Wingate U.) provides an organized study of the teaching methods and philosophical ideologies of three distinguished professors at Indiana State University beginning in 1961. The results translate into a straightforward and informative text for college-level tuba students that mixes history, philosophy, pedagogy, and an assessment of the tuba's advanced role in classical music, as well as its versatility in popular music. Topics include diversity of career choices, chamber music, recital preparation, curriculum, teaching style, camaraderie, intonation, and solo tuba recordings.
