For each instrument, there are demonstrations by Anthony Maiello of breathing and forming an embouchure, assembling, holding and caring for the instrument and producing a sound. First notes and instrument workouts with helpful techniques by various artists/clinicians are presented, along with rhythmic training by Jack Bullock. Unique to the video are play-along duets and performance pieces (videotaped from the student's perspective) with Anthony Maiello and a middle school band.
