The History of Music, Books 1, 2, and 3 are collections of works by composers of the Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, and Romantic Periods (1450-1900 approximately). Each volume contains studies of all of these periods so that the player may be exposed to the variety of styles, despite his/her playing ability. The player will benefit most if all three volumes are completed. The History of Music is not a collection of well-known melodies, nor a collection of orchestral parts. Most of the studies were originally vocal pieces and have been kept in their original form as much as possible.
These method books are highly recommended for private study, although many professional players enjoy them for sight reading. Each volume progresses in difficulty within itself, as well as Book 1 is considered for the elementary player, Book 2 for the intermediate player, and Book 3 for the advanced player. They work very well with a good method book that teaches the fundamentals. The studies have been carefully edited for each individual instrument, and then reviewed by professional players and teachers.
Young students studying brass instruments are not given enough exposure to the music of the great composers such as Beethoven, Haydn, Wagner, to name a few. The History of Music Books were designed to introduce brass players to this music at their crucial learning years. J. Ausfahl, the editor, has spent literally, years researching, compiling, and editing these books and hopes you and your students find them very satisfying, rewarding, and enjoyable.
