Essential Musicianship For Band
Ensemble Concepts
Eddie Green, John Benzer & David Bertman.
This amazing ensemble technique book zeroes in on important, specific skills each
musician must develop for successful ensemble performance. What makes this
book stand apart is the degree of attention given to the most basic of techniques, yet
those so often overlooked by musicians. Focus of sound, balance, what happens at
the end of a note, matching the intensity of other players in the ensemble, and many
more difficult concepts are delivered with clarity, including goals that focus the player's
attention while throughout the exercise. Both new and seasoned directors will find
inspiration and helpful techniques here. Your band will most certainly benefit from
regular use of the book in rehearsal. This book would work well for any band performing
music at the easy through medium levels.

Essential Musicianship For Band
Fundamental Ensemble Concepts
Eddie Green, John Benzer, David Bertman & Evelio Villarreal.
The goal of this collection is to provide appropriate exercises for use at every rehearsal.
These may be used at any stage of ensemble development, including the beginner
level. Basic performance skills are introduced individually and then combined for more
challenging practice. While the concepts are presented in developmental order, the
intent is not to proceed line by line, but rather to purposefully and consistently practice
targeted skills until proficiency is achieved.

To Begin Your Band Rehearsals
Andy Clark.
Start each of your rehearsals off on the right foot with Andy Clark's sensational
warm-up book! Each page contains a five minute routine which warms up your band

followed by a technique exercise, which is in turn followed by concentration on tone
production and tuning. By alternating routines, you can always provide your group
with work in the areas where they need the most help while being most economical
with your valuable rehearsal time. A wonderful way to start your rehearsals with a
minimum of muss and fuss and a maximum of learning!
