Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need Book 1 first?
Yes. Book 2 continues the sequence and assumes the fundamentals from Book 1 are already in place.
02What are harmonic studies?
Exercises moving between notes in the overtone series on a single fingering. They train lip slurs, flexibility and upper-range control.
03Is this for beginners?
No. It suits players who already read fluently and have a working embouchure. A first-year student should start elsewhere.
04Can I use it without a teacher?
The exercises are usable alone, but harmonic work rewards outside feedback on tone and tension. A teacher speeds progress and prevents strain.
