Starter Duets For Horns

The early stages of learning any instrument are undoubtedly the most important. A good teacher is of course essential but it is also vital to have stimulating pieces to play, which complement your choice of teaching method, and are carefully tailored to introduce learning and playing skills in a structured manner. As in the book of Starter Studies, the duets in Starter Duets introduce new musical elements in a logical order to facilitate the speedy growth of the 'complete musician', with the obvious benefit of allowing teacher and student (or two students) to play together and therefore experience the benefits of ensemble playing in the learning process.
