    Essential Method for Mallet Students

    This "Modern School" is outstanding for developing mallet percussionists. The 30 progressive etudes systematically build technique across xylophone, marimba, and vibraphone. It's excellent for teaching rhythm, sight-reading, and developing advanced dexterity. The inclusion of classical arrangements and orchestral excerpts prepares students for diverse repertoire. A must-have for any serious percussion studio.

    A Percussionist's Resource for Ensemble Pieces

    As a vocal coach, while this isn't piano accompaniment, it's invaluable for percussionists preparing orchestral excerpts from operas like Puccini or Delibes. Mastering these specific percussion parts, found in the "Modern School," allows them to understand their role within the vocal-orchestral texture. It’s crucial for developing nuanced, collaborative ensemble playing from the percussion section.

    WARNING TO MICHIGAN STUDENTS.

    If you are auditioning for the all-state honours band in the state of Michigan, or elsewhere...or you just want the Goldenberg and you were given a serial code, THIS IS THE WRONG BOOK. I REPEAT. WRONG BOOK.THIS HAS THE SAME SERIAL CODE AND THE BOOK WITH THE CORRECT ETUDES MAY POSSIBLY BE OUT OF PURCHASE. PLEASE NOTE THIS AND MAKE THIS PURCHASE DECISION CAREFULLY.This is a good book; it takes the name and number of a fantastic book however.This is a huge problem and so unless you're not in need of these exact etudes featured in the original book, DO NOT GET THIS.If you're the latter group, any book helps, and there's some good etudes in here.
