Band
Method Books
Here
is my collection of band, percussion and instrumental method books.
When I was teaching, I became obsessed with drum books! Most new
books that came into the music store, I would buy. There used
to be this big event called The Mammoth Music Mart a few towns
over. I would walk out with all kinds of books and records. I
also found books at The Chicago Drum show every year I attended.
I probably have four to five hundred drum books.
Scanning
all of these and looking at the collection, I think my motive
at the time being a drum teacher was to ammas a library of books.
Looking at it now, I think I liked the artwork and colors on the
covers.
