Oklahoma,
theheat had fallen only afew degreesfrom the day?s high o f 102, and
storm clouds had begun to gather to the north. M y seat forthe first concert of the inaugural tour was a grassy spot, sur-rounded by hundreds of listeners of all
ages,musicians and non musicians alike. Conductor M a r i n Alsop cued the tim-pani, and my body and soul thrilled to
the strength and optimism of Monarch Brass intoning Copeland's ?Fanfaref o r the Common Man.? The moment was spiritual!
The seventeen musicians wove a sensual tension between vibrant solo-playing and full, rich, often dangerous harmonies throughout a concert of in-spiring ?older? pieces -Tomasi?s ?Fan-fares Liturgiques,? arrangements o f Ravel and Bizet - and exciting world premieres. . .Libby Larsen?s ?Brass Flight?, Jon Deak?s ?Fanfaref o r Annie O?,Carolyn Bremer?s ?Throw Caution
tothe Wind.? In Bizet?s ?Carmen,? Su-san Slaughter, A m y Gilreath and Julie Landsman drew clear sweet solos from trumpets and horn M a r i e Speziale got downandd i r t y while ?Struttin? withSome Barbecue.? Ava O r d m a n spoke a hun-dredvoices through her trombone in the lyricism of Libby Larsen. Theentire l o w brasssection snarled raunchy chords for Annie Oakley?s shooting rival Frank Butler, while the trumpets and horns played Oakley?s jagged edged nervesas
she stepped up to the contest. After whooping and clapping for AnnieO.?s
victory, the wholebandjoined in joyous dissonances and harmonies to celebrate the breaking of barriers by a pioneering woman.
Larsen?s ?Brass Flight,? written for the inaugural tour, offers arich meta-phor for this ensemble of women musi-cians; Larsen had explained tothe audi-ence that she worked from the image of
the butterfly, which she read into the group?s name, She played with the ?Glint? of light dancing o f f of wings in
thefirst movement, by releasing whim-sical upward flights over.a constant 3-2-3pulse; shedevelopedawarm ?Glow? o f ensemble sound inthesecond move-ment, suggesting the glow of colorona butterfly?s wings, and explored, in the third movement, the butterfly?s inexpli-cable flight that flutters and ?Glides? by Jayingdown challenging rhythmic pat-ternsunder short, smooth melodic lines of flight. I heard in this butterfly a rebirth, a newness, a hopeful transfor-mation, and a musical form that de-manded excellence from the playersand
offered beauty to its listeners. After the first movement, the composer, sitting near me on the grass breathed, ?If this pieceisever performed this well again, T'll be happy.?
Theseelements of hope and trans-formation evoked feelings that I have rarely experienced in a concert. The dream o f Monarch Brass, birthed by Susan Slaughter, has grown with the participation of the group?s members. The dream began as an effort to give greater visibility to womenbrassplayers and to bring seldom-performed music by women composers totheaudiences it deserves. In addition to the works by Larsen and Bremer, pieces written by Joan T o w e r , and others arranged by Melba Liston and Velvet B r o w n were also featuredonthe tour?s concerts; but much of theexcitement I feltandheard
~
in the days leading up to the first concert also revolved around the building of a new model o f professional musician-ship.
T o e x p l a i n , I must speak to w h y I called the members o f M o n a r c h Brass w o m e n musicians. I n m y o w n profes-sional f i e l d o f Spanish A m e r i c a n litesa-ture, the w o r d p o e t i s a s , l o n g used to t e f e r to w o m e n w h o w r o t e poetry, sepa-rated t h e m o u t f r o m the canon o f male p o e t a s and degraded t h e i r artaslesser i n q u a l i t y and i m p o r t a n c e ; f e m i n i n e m o d i -f i e r s can have v e r y negative e-f-fects. T h e w o m e n w h o p l a y i n M o n a r c h Brass are n o t o n l y the best w o m e n brass players i n the c o u n t r y ; they are a m o n g the best,

A n d yet, f o r n o w ) . . . a n d h o p e f u l l y not m u c h longer... t o p o i n t out that they are w o m e n serves an i m p o r t a n t f u n c t i o n in r e s p o n d i n g to the h i s t o r i c a l ( m i s ) t r e a t m e n t o f w o m e n w h o have ventured i n t o this male realm, a

Susan?s dream has expanded be-y o n d the v i t a l tasks o f recuperating the h i s t o r y o f w o m e n brass pioneers and s u p p o r t i n g the g r e a t e r i n c l u s i o n o f w o m e n brass players i n professional are-nas.

fantastic musicians, whose level of ex-perience ranges from the long European. solo career o f Carol Dawn Reinhart and the prestigious chairs held for years by several members in this country?s top orchestras to players in the initial years o f their first professional jobs. An aura o f mutual respect and inclusiveness in-fuses the group's work; the only exclu-sionary element o f
their ethic is the rejec-tion of the inter-per-sonal competitiveness that leadstostressand divisive actions. Fol-lowingSusan

From that
mo-ment of the opening rehearsal on, the first rule was to have fun, Hard work, excellence, and good humor were
giv-ens, evenunder impossible conditions: the heat and the ensuing thunderstorm in the middle of the opening concert, 4:30 wake-up calls and a Kansas w i n d that rendered music clips and stands useless. Mentoring, supportive suggestions, ro-tating of chairs from one piece to the next, and general
taking-care-of-each-other banished exclusionary or harshly critical words from the scene. Conduc-tor Marin Alsop helped infuse the ambi-ancewith a mutual respect through her self-effacing comments. . .?if you just ignoremein measure 5, you?! do fine? ...,herfinesse in those ?oops? moments . . . ?hmmm, that works nicely as a canon, but I was starting in bar 22?, while her hands led with aprecision that the musicians ate up, and her genius madethedifficult and quirky segments o f the brand new pieces work magnifi-cently.

T r o u b l e - S h o o t i n g f o r Tone Production
B y : M a r i e Speciale
One thing I have encountered with regard to tone pro-duction, is that younger players sometimes have difficulty moving air through the instrument, either because they are
tight in the throat, or because their aperture is not open enough to service the needs oftheinstrument. And, generally, w h a t[ doistrouble-shoot. I f it happenstobe an aperture problem, I look at how they are forming the embouchure. Do they indeed have an aperture?
There was a school of thought many years ago that advocated stretching the lips tightly like a rubber band to produce what was called the ?smile system? of playing. Over the years that?s not been proven to be the most successful way to produce a good tone. With that method, the lips are
stretched sothinly across the teeth, and so tightly, that the
vibrating surface is reduced, thereby inducing more pressure onthe embouchure.
It?s best to use a c o m b i n a t i o n o f p u l l i n g i n and p u l l i n g out at the same time, w h i c h preserves more v i b r a t i n g surface and createsal i t t l e b i t o f tension in the center o f the l i p . I n e f f e c t , w h a t y o u ' r e d o i n g is u s i n g the muscles around the l i p and m o r e f a c i a l m u s c l e s to c o n t r o l the aperture. I encourage the student to use the r i n g o f muscles around the m o u t h p i e c e to h u g the m o u t h p i e c e ever so gently and, at the same time, p u l l out f r o m the c o r n e r s o f the m o u t h and i n t o the cheeks. F o r e x a m p l e , i f y o u l o o k atat i m p a n i s t w h e n he tunes, he tightens the t w o e x t r e m e ends o f the t i m p a n i headw i t h the keys. I s the p u l l f r o m both sides that p r o d u c e s the t e n s i o n f o r the p r o p e r pitch.
W h e n y o u p u l l i n and out, the f o r m a t i o n i n the c e n t e r lip p r o d u c e s a shape that is n o t u n l i k e that o f an oboe reed-oval-shaped. A s t h e o b o i s t plays f r o m the l o w e r register t o the u p p e r register, the o p e n i n g i n the reed g r a d u a l l y becomes smaller. H o w e v e r , the ( i t a l i c ) s h a p e ( i t a l i c ) o f the aperture remains the same. T h i s is w h a t we, as t r u m p e t players, strive to d o as w e l l . T o i m i t a t e that o b o e reed shape, g r a d u a l l y c l o s i n g the aperture i n t o the u p p e r register, but s t i l l keeping enough o f an o p e n i n g sothat the a i r can pass through the l i p s .
Insimplest terms, the production of the tone is when the air meets the lips and sets the lips into vibration. So it?s
important to establish a good aperture, starting withasmuch of an openingas is comfortable i n the lower register. I f you start with arelatively closed aperture at the bottom end, there?s
no place to go when you get tothetop. Once you establisha
fairly open aperture,it?seasier fortheair column tosetthe lips into vibration andyou?r e less apttoshut down completelyas
youascend intotheupperregister.You?ll be able to servicethe
instrument through the middle and upper registers without feelingasthough everythingiscoming back at you intheform o f resistance. Basically, there?s someplace for the air togo.
But assoon as you shut the aperture down, as in the smile fashion ortherubber band fashion, there?s no place fortheair to go andthetone quality suffers dramatically in all registers.
A n o t h e r t h i n g t h a tI have f o u n d that has been ap r o b l e m w i t h y o u n g e r players is the i n e f f i c i e n t use o f the air c o l u m n . W h a t they tend to do is deflect the air c o l u m n . W e all t h i n k in terms o f high and l o w . T h e r e is an a u d i b l e vertical, as w e l las
a v i s u a l vertical. W e see the notes o n the page as being high o r l o w , W e hear t h e m as being h i g h o r l o w . Therefore, the tendency is to do j u s t that w i t h the air c o l u m n , m o v i n g the air u p o r d o w n in a s o m e w h a t vertical fashion. W h e n that h a p -pens, you w i n d u p d e f l e c t i n g the air colurmn e i t h e r i n the m o u t h p i e c e o r in the lead pipe, thereby h i t t i n g resistance very q u i c k l y . T h e r e s u l t i satone q u a l i t y t h a t i s t h i n , unfocused, and one that tends to shut d o w n i n the upper register.
I f y o u t h i n k i n terms o f a t o n a l approach w h e r e b y the l o w note is s i x inches i n f r o n t o f y o u r b e l l and the high note is at the o t h e r end o f the room, then you?re g o i n g to have am o r e horizontal, rather than vertical concept. Y o u ' r e f o l l o w i n g through w i t h the air c o l u m n so that the air c o l u m n isn?t deflected and y o u don?t getasm u c h resistance.
A n o t h e r analogy is to t h i n k o f a g o o d baseball p l a y e r w h o steps up to the plate and makes c o n t a c t w i t h the bat o n the ball. H e doesn?tj u s t stop the m o t i o n o f the bat w h e n c o n t a c t is m a d e between the b a t a n d the b a l l (unless he?s bunting, o f course). Once he hits that ball, he f o l l o w s t h r o u g h w i t h the bat. A n d it?sthe same type o f f o l l o w t h r o u g h that is necessary i n s u p p o r t i n g the tone.

Deflecting the air column can doanumber of things to cut down on your tone production.You?ve gotal i t t l e cup that you?re blowing into, When you're aiming air right into the throat of the mouthpiece, the air isgoing into the mouthpiece unimpeded. Butassoonasyou start to move that aircolumn?
either up or down, you?re going to hit the cup part o f the mouthpiece and not the center of the mouthpiece where the

hole is. Eventually the air is going to find its way into the throat
o f the mouthpiece, but not before it comes back in your face, P o e m
soto speak. It?s possible to move the air through the center of
the mouthpiece and still have it deflected somewhere in the By MarieSpeziale
lead pipe. There again,it?sgetting trapped and causing some A s strangers we a r r i v e d production problems. There's a definite resistance there and one F r i d a y n i g h t in J u n e we sometimes have to be aware that in order to counteract that F r i e n d s w e became
resistance we just have to really think horizontally and follow 80 very, very soon through with the air column. United in s p i r i t

Not even buzz. Just blow air throughthelead pipe With w a r m t h and p a s s i o n

low-pitched vibration withtheconcept o f actually movingthe
aircolumn through the lead pipe. That helps a great deal Then when they put their tuning slide back on, they get the feel of blowing through the lead pipe without the resistance associ-ated with deflecting the air colurnn.
