Basics :

 This is basically a little group of exercises to help develop the tone when you are first starting. This is the type of exercises that I did when I first started which helped me develop my basic skills like tonguing and how to create a sound. If you are a beginner, I encourage you to also try some of the other basic exercises in the other sections of the page. Also practice all of the scales in all the different keys. When you learn to play all the major scales fluently I suggest for you to take these basic exercises and play them in different keys. Also I will be recommending some websites for reading music incase you don't know how to read music..
