HS Band: Our books are in. For this course you need your own personal copy of Foundations for Superior Performance. The books are available from Mr. Gourley. They are $7 for winds, $10.50 for percussion. Checks should be made out to Ted Brown Music and have your instrument written in the “notes” section. Cash should be in an envelope with your name and instrument written on it.
Recordings of the pieces we are currently working on are posted in the “course documents” section.
