Essential Elements for Band : Percussion Book 1 has been used by band directors for a very long time now, covering snare drum technique, basic keyboard technique, and basic music theory.
For private lessons, this book introduces one new technical concept, a few musical concepts, and sometimes a new percussion instrument. Every single exercise can be used/played with an entire concert band when you don't have time for private lessons.
The included Audio/Video CD includes accompaniment tracks, tempo adjustment software, SmartMusic Accompaniment Software, Finale NotePad Notation Software, Essential Elements Interactive, and more.
