A Band Director's Handbook of Problems and Solutions in Teaching Instrumental Music

All traditional band instruments are acoustical amplifiers, amplifying the vibrations of the reeds, lips, airstreams, drum heads, etc.  Most of the problems listed in this book must be solved by enabling the performer to improve the way in which he/she produces and supports these vibrations.  Frank Brown has compiled a list of the most common problems and some practical solutions to these problems.
