Tuba Clinician
We are happy to have Mr. Vince Jackson back again to work with our Tuba and Euphonium students every Thursday during Band class throughout the year. Mr. Jackson helps students to achieve the full, characteristic sound that is so critical for the individual success of the student and for the overall tonal development for the entire band. The Dodgen Tuba and Euphonium students work in small group sessions to focus on embouchure development, air support, and overall expressive performance.
