Teaching Percussion (with 2-DVD Set)
This text is the most thorough treatment of percussion pedagogy known to me. The thoughtful development of topics and the inclusion of progressive exercises and other supplemental materials are excellent."I tell my students that this book will be an invaluable reference source for them throughout their careers."I have been using this book in teaching the percussion methods class since 1989, at first recommending its purchase and since 1997, requiring its purchase. I try to emphasize to these students that they should keep this book after the end of the term rather than sell it back to the university book stores, as it's greatest value may be when they are no longer college students and are actually employed as music teachers.
