The G. Schirmer 'Solos for the _______ player' series is a great option for at-home/online solo repertoire assignments (particularly for those of you who don't have smartmusic). Online accompaniments come with each book!

Even though it's not quite the time and place (in ontario) to be talking about a new beginner method...lets talk about it anyway. Why? Theres a strong digital/online component to this- its truly a fantastic option for online/hybrid! Years of planning, an amazing team, and a very thoughtful well laid out product in the end. This is how teaching beginning band can move forward, using the Habits philosophies of Scott Rush and Jeff Scott- and GIA Publications, Inc. Music Education Division GIA Publications, Inc.

In a time full of bizarre and ever changing challenges...you guys are nailing it. Youve got this. We WILL have moments like in these pics again (a quick montage of a year ago) and when we do, the ensembles, rehearsals, performances, festivals, events, conferences, HANGS...they'll all be wayyyy better than they ever were because all of you found all of the ways to get through this. Happy World Teachers Day.
