Harmonized Rhythms
Progressive Melodic Rhythm Studies
Charles E. Forque & James Thornton.
Harmonized Rhythms addresses the study of rhythm both melodically and with
full harmonization. One of the most common problems with bands is the lack of
rhythmic precision, and this book is your best answer for solving this problem!
Your students will learn rhythmic independence through the performance of 45
progressive four-part harmonized melodies. Parts are interchangeable, providing
you with maximum flexibility. We think you will find it to be an excellent tool for
improving your band as a whole and your students as individual musicians.

Sight-Reading Book
for Band, Vol. 1
Jerry West.
The industry leader in sight-reading preparation!
This effective and efficient curriculum to develop
sight-reading skills eliminates the need to retrieve
music from the library, hand it out to the band,
collect and reassemble it in score order, and file it
back in the library. Available in five volumes, each
book provides 100 short pieces and saves valuable
rehearsal time. For effective rehearsal planning, an index is provided in the
score with key signatures, meters, and primary rhythmic figures to provide
assistance in creating lesson plans. The music is arranged in a flexible manner
so that it can be adapted to a wide range of ensemble sizes with varying
instrumentation. The exercises feature various key signatures and meters, key
changes, meter changes, accidentals, reversal of rhythms, repeats of various
types, hemiola, and isolation of various sections of the ensemble. Volumes 1-4
are designed to supply material for an entire four-year concert band experience
without repeating any exercise. A proven tool for developing musicianship and
for the efficient preparation for sight-reading contests.

Sight-Reading Book for Band, Vol. 2
Jerry West.
One hundred short sight-reading exercises, slightly more difficult than those
in Volume 1, including more syncopated rhythms, more meter changes, and
more use of sixteenth-note rhythms. The music is arranged so that it can
be adapted to a wide range of ensemble sizes and instrumentations and is
well suited for individual study. As with the other volumes in this series, this
second volume has proven to be an invaluable tool, assisting directors with
efficient preparation for sight-reading contests by allowing opportunities to
focus on sight-reading in class.

A continuing success!
Sight-Reading Book
for Band, Vol. 3
Jerry West.
Like the previous volumes in the series that
have been so successful, Volume 3 contains
100 short sight-reading pieces of music at the
easy and medium-easy levels. The music can
be adapted to a wide range of ensemble sizes
and instrumentations yet is also well suited for
individual study. With the addition of Volume 3,
it is possible to provide even more sight-reading
exercises so students will have a far greater
number of new selections to sight-read without
having to repeat exercises.

Sight-Reading Book for Band, Vol. 4
Jerry West.
Volume 4 of this series contains another 100 short sight-reading pieces, slightly
more difficult than those in Volume 3, and includes more syncopated rhythms,
meter changes, and more use of sixteenth-note rhythms. Efficient, adaptable,
and appropriate for group or individual study, this volume completes a four-
year cycle, making it possible to use a different book each year for a four-year
concert band experience. A tested, convenient, and economical means to
develop this very important aspect of overall musicianship.
