New School Music Handbook

This reference work has established itself as probably the most used and warmly recommended book in the field of school music teaching. That the work has gone into several editions and multiple printings is testimony to this fact.

The volume is written to meet a very real need constantly met by the authors in their long and varied experience in preparing students to teach school music. They have felt that there is a wide field of usefulness for a handbook which shall, within one volume, answer practically all the problems encountered in school music teaching. There are at least seven classes of persons who will find this volume almost indispensable:

1. Students in Universities, Colleges, Schools, Training Schools, who are preparing to teach music in schools
2. Instructors in all educational institutions
3. Graded teachers who are ambitious to have better music in their schools, and who wish to have a reference book which will supply more information than can be given in the music course of study.
4. Supervisors young in experience who need guidance
5. Experienced Supervisors who need a textbook in conducting teacher’s meetings
6. Private teachers of music
7. Superintendents, members of school boards, musical parents and citizens who wish to have detailed information in a compact form.

The present edition of the book, with extensive revisions, it is hoped, will be found equally beneficial.
