What's inside

Things to consider
Start with the teacher's training kit to understand Fischer's approach before distributing student books. Each rhythm section player needs their own instrument-specific book and CD. The supplemental melody book works best when your ensemble includes saxes, trumpets, or clarinets who can play the parts alongside the rhythm section exercises.
