This is Book 2 of Metzger's Step-To-Step Series subtitled, 'an approach to musical development through literature.' As with the other two books in the series for marimba and vibraphone, the solos are arranged in a sequential fashion starting with the easiest. The student is required to sing a scale in the key of each solo before they start (notated at the top of each page). Proven to improve listening and pitch-matching skills.
