      Standard of Excellence Book #1

      I would definitely recommend this book to all beginners. It has it for every kind of instrument and is very educational. I learned how to play flute within one week with it. I would rate it five stars. This is a very good beginner's book.

      Definity Excellent!

      I am 11 and am using this book over the summer to keep practicing. I LOVE IT! It helps me practice notes that are difficult for me, and keeps me in great shape for the school year!

      Very helpful.

      I am now 13 and I used this book when I was 10. It was all my band teacher used. It worked great because now I am in the top of my class and I am section leader.

      Standard of Excellence useful mostly for bands

      This book is OK if you need to get a middle school band on its feet fast. But not great for private lessons.It doesn't cover sharps at all (most band music in F, Bflat or Eflat). Good for groups since all instruments can play together. The CD (IPAS) is terrific,...
