Brass Builder is a kid-proven hit and an invaluable adjunct to the student's regular method book. Rob Sayer has developed an appealing and well-founded utility destined to engage and improve the brass players of tomorrow. Highly recommended!!

I use the Brass Builder with my 5th grade brass students. They really enjoy playing the rock and jazz tunes, and are thrilled to be able to play “cool music” on the first day of class. The Brass Builder will improve intonation, listening skills, and endurance. A great book and CD that I recommend to every band director and private teacher. You can't miss!!!
