This is a complete resource to support the teaching of mixed brass instruments and music theory to whole classes of beginners, using both treble and bass clefs. The 2 year course enables instruments in different keys to play the same piece together, with notes in the correct clef, and fingering and slide positions supplied. The video-based exercises are written to suit the range of the instrument and the ability level of the students. All the tricky technical stuff is taken care of so that you can get on and teach!
