Whether through economic necessity or choice, the trend is towards teaching young beginner instrumentalists in groups, often of mixed abilities, ages and phases of development, and the joy of this book is that there is something stimulating and yet achievable at every stage.
The preparation of Simply Brass has been a co-operative venture involving continuous consultation and monitoring. This venture has combined the skills, acquired knowledge and ideas of a number of highly experienced, successful brass teachers and band directors and Douglas Coombes, a composer and educator of extraordinary resourcefulness with an undaunted ability to be prolific and innovative with a very small range of notes!
