BandBridge was designed with inclusion at its core. Outside of the “mainstream” set of 17 books, there are 18 other books that are written to help support all learners in your ensemble.

• All instruments have a color-coded standard music notation book that can help you assist with a student who is struggling with reading notation. Students often use this book and then move to their mainstream book after some time.

• The color-coded block notation book meets the need of any color-coded instrument on the market or an instrument with color-coded stickers. It also helps for musicians needing literacy accommodations on a concert pitch instrument. Visit the Inclusion Instrument page for more ideas.

This book can be used with any color-coded instrument that are is not typically included in a band. They are precisely aligned and supported with the “mainstream” book curriculum offered in the series.
