The purpose of this study was to investigate whether different approaches to teaching beginning brass players to breathe, buzz, and form an embouchure had significant effects on performance measures. The study was conducted with fourth-grade, public school, beginning brass students. Six intact groups were randomly assigned to either Treatment Group A or Treatment Group B. Three band directors each taught two classes, one in each treatment group.

520 $a The purpose of this study was to investigate whether different approaches to teaching beginning brass players to breathe, buzz, and form an embouchure had significant effects on performance measures. The study was conducted with fourth-grade, public school, beginning brass students. Six intact groups were randomly assigned to either Treatment Group A or Treatment Group B. Three band directors each taught two classes, one in each treatment group.
520 $a The study included two phases. During Phase 1, the first 10 weeks of the fall semester, students (N = 120) received brass instruction once weekly. Treatment Group A (n = 62) received the researcher-designed approach which included extensive breathing and buzzing exercises and open-embouchure instruction. Treatment Group B (n = 58) worked from their regular method book which included brief breathing and buzzing and closed-embouchure instruction. During Phase 2, the first 10 weeks of the spring semester, students (N = 112) in Treatment Group A (n = 58) continued with the researcher-designed approach. Treatment Group B ( n = 54) received the same breathing and buzzing exercises as Treatment Group A, but continued closed-embouchure instruction.
520 $a Four dependent variables were vital capacity, playing duration, range, and tone quality. Vital capacity was measured using a spirometer. Duration and range were measured using researcher-designed tests. A three-member panel of brass experts evaluated the tone quality of recorded etudes.
520 $a The data were evaluated using multivariate, univariate, and regression analyses. The independent variables for both phases were treatment group and teacher. In Phase 1, a main effect for group revealed that Treatment Group A had significantly greater range scores than Treatment Group B ( p < .05). During Phase 2 there was no significant difference between groups for tone quality scores. Regression analyses showed that duration (during Phase 1) and range (both phases) were significant predictors of tone quality, while vital capacity was not.
520 $a Findings support the use of an open-embouchure approach for the development of greater range in beginning brass players. Additionally, results revealed that range is a significant predictor for tone quality.
