I love how I can hear Dale Clevenger in her speaking mannerisms. He is alive and well through her teaching and her students.

My horn teacher back when I studied in the late 80's was very etude minded. The usual weekly regime was 2 etudes, the on going work on a solo piece and then excerpts. Most of the time we never made it to the excerpts. Till my junior year anyway. ha ha Then he piled them on along with everything else.
