The Korena take

Third book in the Standard of Excellence band method, scored for tuba. For students who have finished Book 2 and are continuing in a school band program.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Tuba students moving up from Book 2 in the same series
  • School band programs already running Standard of Excellence
  • Private lesson students needing a sequenced third-year book

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Beginners — start at Book 1, not Book 3
  • Players wanting solo repertoire rather than band method material
  • Anyone whose program uses a different method series

KJOS Standard Of Excellence Book 3 Tuba construction detail

Detail 01

Book 3 of a graded series

Assumes Book 1 and 2 material is already covered. Range and rhythms start above absolute-beginner level.

Detail 02

Tuba-specific edition

Written in bass clef at tuba pitch. Not interchangeable with the flute, sax, or trumpet books.

Detail 03

Band method, not a solo collection

Parts are written to line up with other instruments' books so a full band can play the same page together.

Detail 04

Under $10

Priced as a consumable student book. Most programs expect each player to own a personal copy.

  2. 02Buy the tuba edition specifically — other instrument books will not work
  3. 03Check whether your program wants the standard or Enhanced version

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Can a beginner start with Book 3?

No. Book 3 continues where Book 2 ends. A new player should start with Book 1 and work through the series in order.

02Will this work for a sousaphone player?

Yes. Sousaphone reads the same bass-clef tuba part, so the tuba book covers both.

03Does this include a CD or audio?

This is the standard edition. The Enhanced editions in this series are the ones that carry accompaniment discs.

04Is one book enough for two students?

Not practically. Each player needs their own copy to write in and take home.
