Instrument Assembly Videos: Cyndi Hall’s Music Studio

Instrument Assembly Videos: Cyndi Hall's Music Studio Let's face it, instrument assembly videos are boring. You sit, search, click and listen to well-meaning musicians and technicians step by step tell you how to put your instrument together. Yet, while instrument assembly is important, traditionally, there is nothing fun about it. This is why Cyndi Hall's Music Studio has changed our approach. Our Approach How have we changed our approach?  We have created short Animated Video tutorials that are Fun, Entertaining, and Informative.  Our Goal with each tutorial is simply to introduce you to your instrument of choice with just enough information to get you started.  At the same time, we hope to peek your interest in learning more about musical instruments, and music in general. Our Audience That said, you don't have to be a student or play an instrument to enjoy this video tutorial.  Most of us have taken school music lessons at one time or another in our lives.  For example, who can't relate to the experience of going to the music store and renting an instrument for the first time.  You are both excited and intimidated as the person behind the counter brings out a mysterious black case .  You take the case home, open it, and stare at the instrument, or parts, inside thinking,  "OMG!  What have I gotten myself into?" Who can't relate, right? This is why we wanted to create fun, video shorts that are relatable by all and available to everyone. Taking the Mystery out... As a result, from our personal experiences and there being a real present need, we have created short, animated feel good experiences that everyone can relate to, and enjoy. And, at the same time, we hope our videos have taken some of the mystery out of the assembly process, and leave you smiling. So, whether you play an instrument or not, sit back, relax, click on the link and enjoy! Our First Video is entitled Cyndi Hall Music Tutorials - Clarinet Assembly. Not a clarinet player? Stay tuned - more videos are being produced as we speak! Please [...]
