The Achievement System

With the Achievement System, students learn fundamentals through exercises, scales, theory, vocabulary, instrument care, tuning and conducting. Percussion players will be equally challenged on exercises for mallet, snare and tunable percussion instruments. Correlated with Accent On Achievement, Alfred's Essentials of Music Theory and Alfred's Drum Method, this indispensable tool includes reproducible pages.
