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 picks up where Book 1 leaves off, so working through the first book first makes sense.
02Is the oboe book different from the clarinet book?
Yes. Each instrument gets its own edition written for its range and fingerings.
03Are audio tracks included?
No. This is a printed book with nothing bundled.
04Can an adult use this?
Yes, though it is written for school band classes and works best alongside a teacher or ensemble.
