The exercises and studies in this book are written to supplement and augment the numerous elementary method books available. The preliminary exercises stress the fundamentals of scales, chords, and intervals in the various keys. The importance of these fundamental exercises must be recognized as the foundation of fine playing. The etudes develop style, tone, and interpretation. Some of these studies are designed to be played by a group, or in a sectional rehearsal, if desired. Careful attention to correct fingerings, rhythms, and phrasing in these and other studies will result in musically satisfying performance. This book will be found to be useful for individual and class instruction.

The second book of Practical Studies is designed to logically extend the techniques already presented in the First Book and also to introduce and develop new techniques and rhythms that will offer a challenge to the intermediate student. Through the use of slightly more difficult and more extended studies, it is hoped that the material included in this book may more fully develop general musicianship and more feeling for style and interpretation and thus act as a foundation for solo literature.

This book introduces music education majors to basic instrumental pedagogy for the instruments and ensembles most commonly found in the elementary and secondary curricula. This text focuses on the core competencies required for teacher certification in instrumental music. The first section of the book focuses on essential issues for a successful instrumental program: objectives, assessment and evaluation, motivation, administrative tasks, and recruiting and scheduling (including block scheduling). The second section devotes a chapter to each wind instrument plus percussion and strings, and includes troubleshooting checklists for each instrument. The third section focuses on rehearsal techniques from the first day through high school.
