The Sight-Reading Book for String Orchestra
(Revised edition)—Jerry West. The Sight-Reading
Book for String Orchestra contains 100 short pieces
designed to allow groups to sight-read at every
rehearsal without having to sort loose music, hand
it out, and collect it after rehearsal. The music can
be adapted to a wide range of group sizes and
instrumentation, but is also well suited for individual
study. An invaluable tool to assist with efficient
preparation for sight-reading at contests or festivals.
(This revised edition is not compatible with the
previous edition).

Sound Innovations: Sound Development for
Intermediate String Orchestra (Warm-Up
Exercises for Tone and Technique)—Kirk Moss
& Bob Phillips. Sound Development emphasizes
playing with a characteristic beautiful sound. The
components of producing this sound are broken into
four levels, consistent with the revolutionary Sound
Innovations structure: sound tone, sound bowings,
sound shifting, and sound scales, arpeggios, chorales,
and rhythms. The levels can be used in the order that
is best for your students, as individual warm-ups or as
structured units. Your students will learn the proper
use of the bow with the variables of tone, the next
group of bowings needed for intermediate repertoire,
and how to shift and play with vibrato. These skills
are reinforced with comprehensive scales, arpeggios,
sight-reading materials, rhythm exercises, and
warm-up chorales.
