4.0 out of 5 stars
A good guide to some of the best band music written,
By
This review is from: Teaching Music Through Performance in Band, Vol. 1 (Hardcover)
This book is a wonderful source of information on many band works of different grade levels and styles. I liked the fact that this book has an extensive bibliography, enabling a person to study band music in even more depth. I wish that the author had included some band works that can be played by bands without full instrumentation. (my band has two trombones for a "low" section, and it is hard to play the beautiful pieces to their full perfection. I would recommend this book to college students, and I would also recommend that they try and listen to recordings of some of the pieces discussed.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A must purchase for every music educator!,
By
This review is from: Teaching Music Through Performance in Band, Vol. 1 (Hardcover)
I bought this book after having taught for 12 years. I really wish that someone would have written a reference such as this for my first years of teaching! This is a comprehensive volume designed to help the band director develop a concise curriculum for the high school (or college) band program. Included are chapters on rehearsal techniques, conducting basics, philosophies of music education, and justification for our music programs!!! The standout feature of this book, however, is its coverage of wind literature. For each piece, there is historical background, instrumental difficulties, suggested listening lists, and various activities related to the piece. This should be required reading for all college music education majors.

Too many errors... but the second edition is great!,
By
This review is from: Teaching Music Through Performance in Band, Vol. 1 (Hardcover)
Everyone can agree that the Teaching Music Through Performance series is one of the best books on Instrumental Music Education and Wind Band Literature out there. This book was a breakthrough book, but there are so many errors in this edition. I recommend get the second edition of the first volume, which revises all of this and adds more information.Again, I would not downplay this book, but the second edition is much more accurate than the first.
