Technicises for Band

This exciting collection consists of a series of key-related scales, arpeggios, interval and rhythm studies, and chorale exercises for the easy to medium-easy level. Exercises are written in "score" form, for a full understanding of how the parts work together. �Students enjoy "putting the pieces together" to hear what it sounds like--very much a musical puzzle. The consistency of the arrangements let the director guide students skillfully through various techniques. �For instance, line A presents the scale in half notes, with the percussion book being non-rudimental. �Line B presents the scale in thirds with the percussion beginning simple rudiments including flams, rolls, anddiddles. �Lines C and D contain more challenging technique and rhythmic exercises, geared towards the medium-easy level player who's ready to move on to more difficult material. �These provide the "final piece to the puzzle." �Other features include chorales written in score format so you have complete flexibility in assigning parts. �The chromatic scales are written to work on a different range for technique development. �This is a well thought out, comprehensive system of learning sixteen major and minor key signatures that makes an excellent warm-up � � � for rehearsals or lessons. � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �
