Description
This collection features the first two books of the series, along with selected excerpts from the performance book. Since its debut in the 1930s, the A Tune a Day series has transformed music education both in classrooms and at home with its clear and concise content. For the first time, C. Paul Herfurth's original works have been thoroughly revised, incorporating new musical pieces and contemporary instrumental techniques tailored for today's musicians. The A New Tune a Day books maintain the series' logical progression and meticulous attention to detail, while introducing several enhancements, such as an audio CD that includes actual performances and backing tracks to make practice more enjoyable. Additionally, the inclusion of diagrams and photographs aids students in mastering proper technique and tone. This comprehensive resource offers guidance on equipment, effective embouchure and posture, music reading, straightforward lessons on uncluttered pages, audio CDs featuring virtuoso performances and examples, a variety of engaging music including duets and ensemble pieces, progress assessments, a handy pull-out fingering chart, and a selection of repertoire at the end, among other valuable features.
