The Wind Band Sound (Vol. 1) by John Ala...

By John Alan Carnahan

“Professor Carnahan's approach to tuning the wind band is revolutionary. His method and process are educationally and musically sound. He specifically and clearly outlines what, where, when and how to teach wind band players at every level to “listen”. This book is a must for every wind band conductor!”

– Anthony Maiello, George Mason Univeristy

“Without a doubt, John Carnahan’s Referential Tuning system is the most effective way to direct listening in the modern wind band. The system is easy to teach to musicians of all ability levels and produces quick and long-lasting results. I have been using the techniques with my own collegiate ensembles, honor groups, and professional wind bands with positive and consistent results.”

– Dr. David Kish, The Colorado Wind Ensemble & Metropolitan State University, Denver
