Teaching Concert Band in Today's Schools for Today's Students

It is the intent of this text to give the band director a straight forward, clearly written guide on how to be an effective teacher. Part I of the text will address the content area, philosophy and strategies needed to produce a superior sounding concert band. Part II will address issues off the podium for over forty three non music related areas such as discipline, order and organization. This text is a "must have" for current Band Teachers, the college Music Education Instrumental Methods Class and should be required for all undergraduate and graduate Music Students entering the field of Music Education.
