I took a course in teaching brass instruments at the University of North Texas this past semester. Scott Whitener's book was one of the texts used in the course. I believe that anyone wishing to learn more about brass instruments would benefit from reading Scott Whitener's book. He discusses the basic concepts of brass playing, mouthpieces, trumpets, trombones, tubas, horns, baritones/euphoniums, breathing, articulation, posture, instrument care, tone production, and the historical development of brass instruments. Enjoy!

This book has great info on the various brass instruments, exercises and fingerings for the more common instruments. It is the required text for my college's Brass Techniques class for music teachers with little or no brass background. Overall a good buy, especially for those looking to get basic info before they start teaching instrumental music.

It was exactly what I wanted. The textbook was in perfect condition. It was a great purchase for an amazingly cheap price.

This package was great. In excellent shape and shipped in time and efficently. The book was in great packaging and was no problems during shipping.

Book was in good condition, but the CD was snapped in half.

I'm not sure that was mentioned in the item description, but for $70, it probably should have been.

Book arrived in timely fashion; fit the description. Had a few minor dings and tears in the little binding holes, but otherwise, I recommend this seller!

The book is awesome, price and delivery were almost flawless accept for the missing CD. Online Amazon advertised the book with CD included, no CD was included in package. So please list accurately in the future...
