TAKE NOTE...

The major difference between Baroque (English) and German fingering systems occurs when playing the note “F” on the soprano and tenor, and “Bb” on the sopranino, alto and bass. Baroque recorders require a forked fingering for these notes. German recorders do not. While the German fingering allows for an “easier” beginning, the Baroquefingered recorder provides for a much wider choice of recorders and better octave and chromatic intonation.

This revolutionary new method book is designed to help organize the daily rehearsal and to improve the overall performance level of the instrumental ensemble. From as little as five minutes a day, band directors can expect to see improvements in the following areas of student performance: sound (tone production); articulation (styles and concepts); greater flexibility, agility, endurance; increased range; individual and ensemble listening skills; technique in all twelve major and minor keys and a basic understanding of music theory.

Warm-up Fundamentals

Warm-up Fundamentals was conceived as a tool for directors to use as part of a daily ensemble routine. It covers important fundamental concepts such as breathing, long tones, interval slurs, articulation, flexibility, chords and chorales. Each section breaks concepts down to the most fundamental elements before intergrating them together. This gradual approach to the ensemble warm-up helps extend the practial application of these exercises well in to rehearsals and performances.

Teaching Music Through Performance Marches

The first of its kind, Teaching Music through Performing Marches is a major contribution to the field of music education. Part of the best-selling Teaching Music through Performanceseries, this much-needed volume explores the often overlooked, ignored, and sometimes poorly played genre of traditional marches. Insightful chapters filled with the rich knowledge and experience of a professional military bandsman and music educator, combined with one-of-a-kind resource guides to the best marches ever composed, make this book a must-have for all band directors!

The second half of the book offers complete analysis of 52 of the most significant marches ever composed, in the best tradition of the Teaching Music series. These Resource Guides include information about the composer, the composition, historical background, technical requirements, stylistic considerations, important musical elements, and suggested references. 3 CD Set Available

Developed by Vandoren in 1983 for jazz and commercial music. The thicker extremity and a more flexible pallet than the Traditional reed allow vibration over a larger surface area with maximum elasticity. This type of vertebral column gives the musician much greater playing flexibility as the resultant elasticity zone is very large. The JA stands for Jazz and the VA stands for Variety (entertainment music) and ... Vandoren.

Launched in 1993 to answer the demand of some American jazz musicians (a JAVA with even more wood). Thicker tip than the traditional Vandoren reeds and a longer pallet. Sound: more brilliant, more percussive, particularly well adapted to all the new styles of music.

Available for Soprano Saxophone (10-Pack), Alto Saxophone (10-Pack), Tenor Saxophone (5-Pack) Strength 2/2.5/3/3.5/4

Vandoren V12

Very precise attack, homogeneous timbre in every register, controlled high notes, warm and velvety sound, this reed offers exceptional possibilities.

Available for Soprano Saxophone (10-Pack), Alto Saxophone (10-Pack) Strength 2.5/3/3.5/4/4.5

Vandoren ZZ

In tests with Jazz saxophonists, the artists found the new reed to be immediately responsive without sacrificing the brightness or tone quality required for their style of music. Its free-blowing characteristics made the artists immediate fans of the new reed.

Available for Soprano Saxophone (10-Pack), Alto Saxophone (10-Pack), Tenor Saxophone (5-Pack), Baritone Saxophone (5-Pack)

Strength 2/2.5/3/3.5/4

Wacky Words Starring Walter

Hal Leonard Flashcards

This game is an introduction to the language of music and helps students to learn music symbols and terms. It gives parents and teachers the opportunity to introduce and review (drill) music terms and symbols. It is not necessary for parents to understand music to be able to easily play this game with their children. It is available in four different levels, ranging from pre-staff reading through late elementary. When a student becomes proficient at identifying the terms and symbols in one level, all that is needed is to go to the next level. After playing Legato Lake, students become more aware of the music terms and symbols in their pieces. This results in a better understanding of what is required for a more accurate performance. Each game is populated with brightly coloured music theory fish. “Bait” cards display the musical terms and symbols and the first player to “catch” all of the fish in his or her lake has caught the limit and is the winner! 134951 Primer A/B............................$27.95 134952 Level 1 & 2............................$27.95

Space Place

Along with the ability to read note names, a student must also be able to understand intervals (the distance between notes). This skill enables them not only to play more easily, but also to grasp the basics of chord construction and harmonization. In addition, the ability to sight read and sight sing is greatly enhanced. There are no clef signs in this game, so students determine intervals by their placement on the staff and not by note naming. Intervals appear in melodic and harmonic form. The Space Place game is easily used in conjunction with the instruction of the solfege system. Each level is played with the same rules so that the transition from one level to another is easy. Explore the solar system while learning to recognize intervals at a glance. Compete to obtain pairs of intervals. This will enable you to advance to the next planet, and ultimately to the Space Place for the win! 134950 Primer...................................$ 24.95 134949 Level 1 & 2............................$ 27.95

Notewordy

The ability to read notes is essential for a musician. The objective of the NoteWordy game is to help a student gain proficiency in note reading. This will make it easier and more fun to play musical instruments or to sing. Notes are presented on either treble or bass staves rather than on the grand staff. The goal is that the students will learn to look at the clef signs rather than assume that one would be treble or that the other would be bass. NoteWordy is available in three editions: Grand Staff, Treble Staff only, and Bass Staff only. There are no marks on the cards that identify the notes. Unlike flash cards, the players must identify the notes in their hands many times for each turn. The amount of notes identified in every game is significantly higher than what would be covered by doing a set of flash cards. Students love the game and even ask to work on note names by playing NoteWordy! Each level of NoteWordy concentrates on a different area of the grand staff.
