Distribute sanitized/boiled mouthpieces and demonstrate how to buzz in brass mouthpieces, and how to set the embouchure for woodwind mouthpieces/headjoints. Discuss what embouchure means. If time, and if enough sanitized instruments available, students may try a second one. Some classes will take longer than others.
Use score sheet to determine how natural the instrument fits to the students.
