Description

This pack is made up of books 1 and 2, plus selections from the performance book. Since it first appeared in the 1930s, the concise, clear content of the best-selling A Tune a Day series has revolutionized music making in the classroom and the home. Now, for the first time, C. Paul Herfurth's original books have been completely rewritten with new music and the latest in instrumental technique for a new generation of musicians. The A New Tune a Day books have the same logical, gentle pace and keen attention to detail, but with a host of innovations: the inclusion of an audio CD, with actual performances and backing tracks, will make practice even more fun and exciting, and the explanatory diagrams and photographs will help the student to achieve the perfect technique and tone. This book contains: Advice on equipment; Instructions for an effective embouchure and a comfortable posture; Explanatory section on reading music; Easy-to-follow lessons on clear, uncluttered pages; Audio CDs with virtuoso performance, backing tracks, and audio examples; Great music including duets, rounds, and ensemble pieces; Tests to check progress and comprehension; Useful pull-out chart giving all fingerings; A selection of repertoire at the back; and more!

5Better than any music instruction book on the market!  Jan 15, 2012 By Denise Rich "http://www.flutterbutterdesigns.com/blog"
I purchased this book and the Performance Piece book. Each book comes with a CD. I'm not as impressed with the CD as a parent because the musician plays quicker and not necessarily the same notes that are within the book. However, my child enjoyed playing along with the songs on the CD. It gave her the feeling of being at a concert. My daughter was already experienced when she went to her new school and the band teacher had to adjust what to teach her. Instead of using a book that was set up for another school that appeared to have songs that weren't challenging or fun, she chose to use these series of books to teach her. The teacher was very impressed with the entire set. A few minor errors were in the books but she said they weren't a big deal. My daughter then moved up into a different grade and had these books still in her bag. The new teacher at the new school saw these books and loved them so much that he's considering the idea of using them for the entire school band next year. This is a great testament to the written content and music that's included. I would definitely recommend this to anyone learning an instrument. We also have the clarinet set too which is just as wonderful.
