Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What's the difference between T.C. and B.C. for baritone?
Treble clef parts are written like trumpet, transposed for Bb. Bass clef parts are written at concert pitch. Same instrument, different notation. Buy the one your teacher assigns.
02Can a euphonium player use the baritone book?
Yes. Baritone and euphonium use the same fingerings and range at this level, which is why they share one book.
03Is this enough to learn on my own?
It's built for a band class with a director. Solo beginners can work through it, but there's no substitute for someone correcting embouchure and tone.
04What comes after Book 1?
Book 2 in the same series continues the sequence for the same instrument and clef.
