It is that time of year again! The time of year when the leaves begin to change, the air gets a little chilly, and I am reunited with the fantastic musicians of the Stoughton Public Schools!
If you haven't seen your instrument since June, now is the time to clean the dust off the case and get your embouchure back in working order! Your embouchure is the set of muscles in your face and around your mouth that you use to make a high-quality sound on your instrument. If you didn't use those muscles all summer, they probably got weaker. Start lifting some musical weights by practicing!
Pull out some of your favorite tunes, clean out your instrument, and start making music! See you soon!

PS: The Stoughton High School Marching Band has been hard at work since August 19th to put together their 2013 field show! Come down to the OMS Parking lot or the SHS Football Stadium to see them practice on Saturday mornings (9am-1pm) or see them at a competition, with dates listed here!
