My Project

We are starting an after school band program for various woodwind instruments and we are in need of basic materials to ensure a successful start to our club. Our students do not have the opportunity to play in musical ensembles until they enter middle school. My hope is to have fifth students begin their studies on an instrument of their choice before entering middle school.

The Essential Elements books will offer my beginning students sound pedagogy and engaging music that is carefully paced to successfully start them on their musical journey.
