Description
A Fresh Approach for the Beginning Percussion Class offers a combined percussion method that allows classroom teachers to teach snare drum and mallets simultaneously, while introducing a step-by-step introduction of accessory instruments along the way. This method utilizes a much more percussion ensemble approach that many band programs will prefer.
Book 1 includes 10 lessons, perfect for the first semester of the beginning percussion class. It combines warmup exercises, reading lines, and musical studies so teachers can split time between snare and mallet.
