The Yamaha Advantage™ is the perfect way to begin instrumental music instruction. The first few pages reinforce tone production with shape notes and gradually move to traditional music notation. The educational process is enhanced with chorales, technique studies, familiar music from all cultures, great classical themes, special advantage exercises and musical ensemble experiences. The Yamaha Advantage is the only band curriculum with its own student and teacher freindly on line community to enrich the learning process. Check it out at www.yamahaadvantage.com
