Scale Studies for Band - James Curnow
An important part of our Essentials of Musicianship Series, Scale Studies for Band is designed to be used as an instructional aid during your normal daily practice. Written so that the scale studies can be interlaced at appropriate times into your rehearsal, they enable you to address the scale and key considerations of your next piece just before starting that piece. For instance, if the next arrangement you will rehearse has a section in the key of G Major, you can take a moment and review the study in that key (Study Number 7). It's amazing how many wrong notes can be avoided by reviewing the key signature in an interesting and exciting manner, before diving into theperformance piece rehearsal. In the long run, this "key signature review" approach can actually save more rehearsal time than it uses. In addition to the full band aspect of Scale Studies, you may find value in quickly and easily administered "playing tests" using these materials. However you choose to use them, the Scale Studies from the Curnow Music Press Essentials of Musicianship Series will be valuable indeed!

In Movement 1, early explorers witness the grandeur and expanse of the largest fresh surface water system on earth. In Movement 2, wavelets gently lap on the shores of beautiful beaches while happy families enjoy a sunny afternoon, and Movement 3 explores the ships and boats of every description which have navigated these waters for centuries.While thisexceptional piece is entirely different, if you enjoyed James Curnow's previous Grade 2.5 suites, you really should focus some attention on SNAPSHOTS. You won't regret it.
