| "lnnovative, creative, practical-- all the attributes that count, and in this case they are true. BAND DIRECTOR'S HAND-BOOK of PROBLEMS and SOLUTlONS in TEACHlNG lNSTRUMENTAL MUSlC by Dr. Frank Brown was a mainstay of my career in teacher education. It was most helpful to students preparing to teach their peers in mini-teaching sessions. Dr. Brown's book was an important source for discovering the steps to take in isolating and improving the instrumental problems of the class. If university music majors are having to deal with instruments removed from their experience and expertise (either teaching them or learning to play them) BAND DIRECTOR'S HANDBOOK...is immeasurably helpful.

| "The BAND DIRECTOR'S HANDBOOK, authored by Frank Brown, is a very effective guide to problems and solutions for "new" instrumental teachers. It continues to be an invaluable reference for the Junior year instrumental teaching experience. The information in the handbook also serves as a validating and broadening reference for the experienced teacher."

| "One of the most useful tools I have ever had as a music educator. I have always kept it next to my lesson plans. It provides a quick and easy reference, the solutions are logical and easy to implement. They all work. The genius of the book is that it is not only valuable to beginning teachers, but is just as useful for experienced teachers as well. It truly adds authority to your teaching and greatly simplifies teaching techniques. Every teacher should have a copy!"

| "A BAND DIRECTOR'S HANDBOOK of PROBLEMS and SOLUTlONS in TEACHlNG lNSTRUMENTAL MUSlC is an excellent resource for both quick trouble-shooting and long-term teaching strategies. The format is clear and easy to use. It is a fine reference text especially for younger teachers who are looking to improve their breadth of teaching knowledge for each instrument.
