Warm-Ups and Beyond
Warm-Ups and Beyond
Veteran middle school band director Timothy Loest has drawn from 18 years of experience to create an all-encompassing warm-up book appropriate for elementary, middle, and high school programs. Its logical sequence addresses technical issues at a variety of levels.
In addition to a wealth of chorales and scales, the book incorporates articulation and flexibility studies, and an in-depth glossary of musical terms, providing answers to questions posed by younger musicians.
Warm-ups and Beyond: A Comprehensive Rehearsal Book for Developing Bands was written to help your students develop outstanding musicianship while saving you valuable teaching and planning time. It is the perfect companion to any band method and will replace warm-up sheets, scale sheets, fingering charts, and other handouts commonly found in band folders. Percussion has been integrated throughout to develop important skills including sticking, rudiments, and accessory instrument technique. While this publication is broad in scope, its parts are sequenced into short fundamental lessons and exercises.
