Brass is a simple to read book that explains the various types of brass instruments, including unusual brass instruments like a conch shell or didgeridoo. How they are played. How brass instruments are made. How to make your own using throw away items and how to play the instrument you make. The language is simple but not babyish. The photographs match the text well. -Eisenbeisz, Bancroft School Omaha Public Schools February 2013-- Omaha Public Schools Colorful photos and very brief texts introduce beginning readers to a variety of musical instruments found around the world. When the texts act as captions, identifying the instruments in the pictures (e.g., the duduk is a very old reed instrument), they are useful. Otherwise, their simplicity raises more question than it answers. Glos., ind. - BB (Barbara Barstow) The Horn Book Spring 2012-- The Horn Book This primary level introduction to instruments is informative and appealing. Each book describes aspects of the instrument group, demonstrating through photographs, distinguishing features, and parts of the instrument as well as how it is played. The text is simple yet fairly comprehensive, and each book contains a simple picture glossary. The illustrations are not only informative, but breathtakingly beautiful and multicultural, incorporating people and instruments from around the globe. Very young students will not only learn about musical instruments, but will also be introduced to multiple cultures as they navigate through these introductory texts. Index.
