| | Sight-Reading Builders For Developing Bands
This band set is an important addition to the ground-breaking "Essentials of Musicianship" series from Curnow Music Press. You have probably found that if you rely entirely on your method book and performance pieces for teaching and reinforcement, many aspects of musicianship do not receive the focus that they should. Method books have notoriously little reinforcement material because they try to cover so much with so little book space. The Essentials series allows you to select the areas that your band needs work on and provides a great deal of reinforcement for those critical skills.
If you are not yet familiar with this series, you have just discovered a tremendous teaching resource! Look at the score for Sight-Reading Builders, and notice the comprehensive instructions for most effective use in teaching your band to read style as well as notes and rhythms. This is a wonderful resource!
