About this collection
Accent on Ensembles
Accent on Ensembles is a concert band method series designed to build ensemble skills from day one. Created by John O'Reilly and Mark Williams, these books pair individual instrument parts with full conductor scores, making them ideal for directors who need flexible, music-making materials for mixed instrumental groups.
Who it's for
- Band directors starting or building a beginning ensemble program
- Private instructors teaching woodwind and brass players who need ensemble experience
- Music teachers looking for flexible band supplement materials
What's inside
- Individual part books for flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, horn, trombone, tuba, and percussion
- Full conductor scores included with each set
- Concert band arrangements at foundational level
Things to consider
Start with Book 1 if your group is new to ensemble playing. Each instrument has its own part book, so you'll need to purchase one book per player plus the conductor score. The series is designed to progress systematically, so plan to move through the books in order as your ensemble develops.
