I loved playing this book. It's a great starter book for young students. I am in book two, but I still enjoy playing songs like : Sawmill creek, Volga boat song, and Montego Bay. We played Montego bay for our final concert that year we used that book, and it turned out great.

My band teacher told us to try this book and we all immediately saw improvement. We use the fingering chart in the back for a lot of stuff. I would definately reccomend this to anyone who uses it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
