KJOSStandard Of Excellence Book 2 Conductor Score
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Conductor score for Standard of Excellence Book 2 — the full ensemble part in one volume, for the band director running rehearsal, not for a student.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Band directors teaching from the podium with Book 2 students
- Rehearsal planning where you need all parts on one page
- A substitute or student teacher covering a Book 2 ensemble
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- A student learning an instrument — buy the instrument-specific book
- Anyone wanting playable single-line parts to practice at home
- Ensembles working out of Book 1 or 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
Book 2, not Book 1
Picks up mid-method. Your students need to have finished Book 1 for this to line up.
Detail 03
$59.95 versus roughly $9-13 for a student book
The price reflects the page count and the full-ensemble layout, not a premium edition.
Detail 04

Locks you into matching student books from the same series and level — parts are keyed to the score.
Detail 05
Print book format
Sits on a music stand and stays open through rehearsal. No app, tablet, or account involved.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need this if I already have the student books?
If you're directing, yes — the student books only show one instrument's line. The conductor score shows all of them together, which is what you need to run rehearsal.
02Can a student use this to practice?
It's a poor fit. A student would have to hunt for their line on every page. Buy the book for their specific instrument instead.
03Does this work with Book 1 students?
No. This is the Book 2 score, and the material is sequenced to follow Book 1. Your players need to have worked through Book 1 first.
04Why does it cost so much more than a student book?
It contains every instrument's part rather than one, so it's a much larger book.
