James Curnow. Your program will definitely

rhythmic reading abilities! These carefully crafted
musical mini-compositions begin with simple time

rhythms and meters. Musically rewarding, these
pieces are meant to be studied on a daily basis, and

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!

essential musical skill.

H Tone Studies for BandJames Curnow. This
exceptionally useful set will help you to improve
some of the areas of performance that are often
so lacking in today's bands: tone production;
intonation; musical line; blend and balance. Jim
Curnow's belief that good tone production is at the
root of all good playing prompted him to write this
set of studies that focus on this concept, and at the
same time are interesting to play!

n Warm-Up FundamentalsGregg Gausline
and Brian Balmages. This set of warm ups was
conceived as a tool for directors to use as part
of a daily ensemble routine. It covers important
fundamental concepts such as breathing, long
tones, interval slurs, articulation, flexibility, chords
and chorales. Each section breaks concepts
down to their most fundamental elements before
integrating them together. This gradual approach
to the ensemble warm up helps extend the practical
applications of these exercises well into rehearsals
and performances.
