Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Second-year band method for percussion — snare, bass drum, accessories, timpani and mallets in one volume, with CD. For students continuing in a school band.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Second-year band percussionists whose program uses Accent on Achievement
- Students who need snare and mallet parts in one book
- Home practice with recorded accompaniment instead of silence
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Absolute beginners — start with Book 1
- Players wanting drum set material; this is concert percussion
- Students whose band uses a different method series
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Combined percussion
Snare, bass drum, accessories, timpani and mallets sit in one volume instead of separate battery and keyboard books.
Detail 03
Timpani included
Those pages need access to timpani, which is a band room instrument rather than a home one.
Detail 04
Mallet percussion included
Pitched parts mean reading actual notes. Practicing them at home needs a bell kit, xylophone or marimba.
Detail 05
Book & CD
Recorded accompaniment to play along with, which matters most for holding time on rhythm parts.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Percussion book only — other instruments in the band use their own editions

- 03Audio comes on a physical CD; you may need a drive to rip it
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need Book 1 first?
In practice, yes. Book 2 continues the series and builds on the material introduced in the first book.
02Is this the same as the snare drum book?
No. This combined edition covers snare, bass drum, accessories, timpani and mallet percussion together rather than splitting battery and keyboard parts.
03What is on the CD?
Recorded accompaniment for the book's material, so a student can practice their part against a full-sounding backing at home.
04Does it cover drum set?
No. The coverage is concert percussion: snare drum, bass drum, accessories, timpani and mallet instruments.
