n Cadences (Intonation and Balance)Roger
Kugler. Solve balance and intonation issues with
these easy-to-use and effective exercises where
students learn how to listen. All five cadence
forms are represented in all twelve major keys
and voiced in three parts for all instruments.
By changing parts, students learn to listen first
to themselves and then, by reassigning parts,
they start to hear each other, "opening their
ears" to the sounds around them. This allows
players to quickly learn the concepts of blend,
tone, balance, and intonation. Short enough to
use in any rehearsal situation, they are a perfect
addition to any warm-up routine and can be used
with full band, sectionals, and small groups of any
combination of instruments, making it a perfect
all-around rehearsal tool.

n Chorale Warm Ups for Young Bandsarr.

band. The perfect way to improve legato and lyrical
playing and the musicianship of your ensemble.

n Scale Preps for Beginning BandMike
Hannickel. The only problem with having beginning
level bands play their scales is that all the sections
can't yet play a scale! Mike Hannickel offers this
sensible warm-up collection that lets students
begin developing listening and technique skills
through scale performance by using the portions of
the scales they can play. Scales and intervals in the
keys of Bb, Eb and F are introduced, all without the
clarinets having to cross the break or the trumpets
having to ascend an octave. This makes lots of
sense for young musicians!

Musicianship series, Sight-Reading Builders for

grade levels, and conductors will find this collection
makes it easy and convenient to practice this
essential musical skill.
