Running a section

Author: locke9342

I get to run the section this year, after literally 3/5 players left (seniors) wooh... We have 7 or 8 players now, but most are relatively new and honestly that kinda scares me. Because I want this section to be amazing.

What are some good activities and exercises to do together? Before we used to run through some robert spring long tones, do scales and work on music together. We also played through a really cool hydn quartet. I want to do some sort of group playing (outside of band), but the problem is the huge difference in everyone's ability, some players have been literally playing for a year. So any literature recommendations would be great (also links to listen to).

Another reason we can't really play some of the music I want to is we also don't have a great bass clarinet.

Any suggestions about anything above would be welcome.
Thanks in advance.
