FJH MusicMeasures of Success Oboe Book 1
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Oboe Book 1 is a performance-led method that spaces new notes and concepts across six Opus sections, reinforcing them as the student moves forward. Its optional opening material lets early playing begin before formal notation, while the first three notes alternate between long-tone and quarter-note work. Each chapter closes with an Encore assessment, and the book also connects playing with listening, theory, composing, conducting, and music history. CD activities give students examples to evaluate and tunes to learn by ear before playing with accompaniment.
