to the most complex for students to use over

of different configurations for skill building.
Beginning with the most simple rhythms and
concepts, the anthology grows in increasing
difficulty to even the most complex rhythms, so
it can be useful in a variety of grades and skill
levels. Use in the secondary music classroom
or in your choral or instrumental ensembles
for rhythm development and assessment.

reproduce the lessons again and again. A real
budget stretcher!

Essentials of Music Theory—Andrew
Surmani, Karen Farnum Surmani & Morton
Manus. A revolutionary approach to music
theory! This state-of-the-art series of books
and recordings is carefully designed to
make theory easier to learn and teach. It
really works! One of the many features
that sets this method apart is its emphasis
on ear training to help students grasp the
traditional theory concepts. Each unit has
an ear training page, so students can hear
what they have just learned (the teacher
can either use the recordings on CD or
play the examples on the keyboard.) Treble
and bass clefs are used alternately in the
examples, and well-known music is used to
reinforce the lessons, including 24 classical
excerpts and 38 folk songs from 14 different
countries! This remarkable course covers
all of the basics, including blues scales
and chord progressions, modes, solfege
and transposition, while crossword puzzles,
word searches, note naming, and dynamics
recognition games help to make learning
fun! And the ear-training CDs use acoustic
instruments, such as flute, clarinet, alto
sax, trumpet, trombone, violin, and cello, in
addition to piano, rather than synthesizer
or piano only. Now's the time to bring your
classes up to date with the freshest, most
user-friendly theory method available! Your
students will be glad you did!
