2. If you do not have your tuner from last year, the Korg TM 60 has been discontinued. We recommend purchasing this new model of tuner and using an app on your phone for the metronome. This tuner does NOT require a separate pick up clip. 

• Korg AW-LT100M Orchestral Clip On Tuner

• Flip folder (all instruments) and a lyre (clarinet, sax, trumpet, euphonium, and trombone – be sure to specify large bore for f-attachment trombones)

  • These will be used for our football game, fall concert, and pep rally performances.

• Folding Music Stand for home practice (Should have one from 6th grade)

Woodwinds

Reeds, reed care supplies, and cork grease
