(Willis). Thompson's popular Note Speller includes drills in notation and musical rudiments for the piano student. Notes are presented so that learning to read notes goes hand-in-hand with the student's piano lessons.

A practical volume to follow the SCHAUM NOTE SPELLER, Book Two. This is a book that can be used by instrumental and vocal teachers who want their students to know some of the essentials of harmony, but who haven't the time to teach it as a separate subject. Thus, a piano teacher, for example, can teach harmony in conjunction with the regular piano lesson. At the end of Book II, we have employed harmony in an accompaniment sense rather than in the traditional four-part harmony way. Transposition has been treated both melodically and harmonically.

This systemized set of work sheets for supplementing any elementary class or private method is designed to help the student gain a better understanding of the problems of fingering and reading music, while saving valuable lesson time. Available for violin, viola, cello, string bass, clarinet, cornet, trombone, saxophone, flute, oboe, bassoon, French horn, baritone, and tuba.

The purpose of this book is to simplify the process of learning the positions of the notes in music and on the guitar fingerboard.

This unique writing book consists of a series of attractive stories in which many of the words appear in music notation so that the student will need to read notes in order to understand the story. Much of the subject matter is based on fact or interesting American legends and historical figures. This spelling book is suitable for elementary-level students in their first or second year of study. The stories provide the means of drilling students on note reading in both a fun and motivating way. Also available: John W. Schaum Music History Speller (EL01030A).

Designed for use by students who need additional reinforcement in reading music in the bass clef. Basic Bass Clef is especially useful for vocalists and instrumentalists who are beginning piano study and have some knowledge of treble clef and rhythmic notation. Each lesson contains a combination of written and playing exercises.

More than just a note-speller, this work has exercises in which the student writes either the note-name, the note (on the staff) or the note location on the fingerboard through first position. In addition, the second half of the book has dozens of games, puzzles, word search, mazes (and more) that teach the student names of dynamics, articulation, tone color, parts of the guitar, effects on the guitar and note rhythms. This is the most innovative and enjoyable note-speller ever written to reinforce learning along side any beginner's guitar method!
