CURNOW SIGHT READING CUCB2-4

Every conductor knows the importance of using excellent teaching materials to aid in the development of all aspects of musical growth. The quality of the band's performance must be continually improving. Each component of the ESSENTIALS OF MUSICIANSHIP series is designed to focus on a specific area of musical performance. By using these materials during the warm-up period, the conductor can mazimize this time, and focus on specific areas that are important to the performance of the music being prepared. This is not a book, but rather it is a sheet music publication just like any other band publication (score and parts). You'll want to have Sight-Reading Studies in your folders all the time. What a great way to start your rehearsals! Use your usual scale/chorale style warm-ups to put the band's tone quality and intonation in good order - consider using Tone Studies (44000068) or Tone Studies 2 (44000603). Then use James Curnow's new Sight-Reading Studies for a few minutes to put their brains in gear. This great new addition to the ESSENTIALS OF MUSICIANSHIP series of publications by Curnow Music Press makes the players start thinking about articulations, dynamics, rhythmic accuracy, key signatures, accidentals and much more right away. Indispensable!
