Summary of This Method
Revised and modernized, the method "A New Tune A Day " by C. Paul Herfurth retains the spirit that made this series successful: a logical, progressive, and accessible path designed to support the student from the very first steps. Each concept is introduced gently and precisely to build solid foundations in technique and sight-reading, while developing comfortable posture and beautiful tone quality.
Throughout the lessons, diagrams and photos clarify positioning, holding, and essential gestures. The method also emphasizes understanding musical language: dedicated pages for reading, cues to facilitate easier sight-reading, and regular checkpoints in the form of tests to verify knowledge and measure progress.
The musical selection is varied and stimulating, featuring current and enjoyable pieces to play, as well as duets and rounds to work on listening, intonation, and the joy of playing together. The audio CD perfectly complements the book: for each piece, you will find a virtuosic performance and an accompaniment track, as well as recorded examples to support learning. A clarinet edition is also available, convenient for organizing duets between students.
