J.Stivers said Great teaching resource!. Every instrumental conductor, whether young or old, should take time to read this book. The methodical approach to score study and preparation (as suggested from Stith) are both very informative and thorough. Personally speaking, I found this book convicting as a music educator. I believe good educators ask themselve. "Just what was needed." according to Jennifer Siler. Awesome functional layout for preparation. Every music director needs to follow these steps to prepare. Full use of worksheets and nice layout.. S. Schmiedel said For Thorough Preparation. As an educator, this book and the resources provided within it have been instrumental in my rehearsal preparation over the last year. After reading this book I found myself feeling inspired to 'dig deeper' with the pieces I present to my ensemble. The Score Preparation Worksheet is an invaluable, time saving tool tha
