"This is the most comprehensive guide to the instruments of the
woodwind family yet available for performers, conductors, and
teachers. It covers all aspects of performance from classical to
jazz, from intonation to reed adjustment, from technique to
timbre-its all here. Logically organized, it contains two important
sections for each instrument: common technical faults and
corrections and common problems, causes, and solutions. A must
reference."--Edward P.
Asmus, Associate Dean, Frost School of Music at the University of
Miami
"This is a marvelous new resource for anyone who teaches or plays
woodwind instruments. Performance problems are clearly identified,
and accurate, immediate solutions are offered. This is a 'Must
Have' book for the most experienced educator to the first-year
teacher."--James Kurschner, Director of Bands, Normandale College
