Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What is the difference between Baritone T.C. and B.C.?
T.C. is treble clef in Bb, matching trumpet-style fingerings. B.C. is bass clef in concert pitch. Your director's part assignment decides which you need.
02Does euphonium use this book?
Yes. Baritone and euphonium parts are interchangeable in this method; pick the clef your part is written in.
03What is EEi?
Essential Elements Interactive, Hal Leonard's online platform with play-along recordings, tempo adjustment, and assignment tools tied to the book.
04Do I need Books 1 and 2 first?
Book 3 continues directly from Essential Elements Book 2 and assumes that material. Starting here without it will be rough.
