In this episode, we take a break from loftier topics to have some fun with the idiosyncrasies of the various instrumentalists in band. In our BAND DIRECTOR'S DIAGNOSIS BOOK, tongue planted firmly in cheek, we'll examine the symptoms of conditions such as Male Flute Syndrome, Saxodema Legitimitis, Trumpet-tude, Losteo Hornosis, Hyper-glissemia, and more. If you're in a school band, or have ever been in one, you'll no doubt appreciate these conditions which I'm sure you've seen in fellow band members. Enjoy!
