Press Reviews
"...stimulating blend of contemporary popular genres and classical values...the ideal basis for progressive learning and teaching."
Schools Music Association, Autumn 1999
"...ideal for the beginner to intermediate student interested in jazz and popular music."
International Journal of Music Education, University of New South Wales
These collections are based on the already-existing microjazz concept of graded pieces in popular styles, which includes many volumes for all woodwind and some brass instruments......
..... Pupils familiar with the other microjazz collections will undoubtedly enjoy these volumes and will enjoy being able to see the progress in their own performance skills.
Overall this is a pleasing set which would be useful for a good number of pupils of various standards and which will present suitable challenges while remaining an enjoyable tool for study.
