Premier Performance(r)is an innovative and comprehensive band method written with one primary goal:providing band directors with the most effective and logically sequenced instructional materials for young instrumentalists.Premier Performance(r) is carefully structured to develop the three cornerstones of outstanding musicianship: superior tone quality, accurate rhythm reading skills and technical facility.Strong emphasis is placed on rhythmic development since this may be the greatest challenge facing first and second year students.

Premier Performance(r) Book One and Book Two each offer instrument specific downloadable accompaniments.

The first accompaniment track features a professional musician playing the melody line so students can hear and emulate the sound of their own instrument. The second track eliminates the melody line and provides the background accompaniment so students may play independently. The accompaniments include solo and solo accompaniment for each student method book.
