Heritage is an endorsed product, listen to what they say!
"I have seen and am very familiar with Heritage, and highly recommend it as a sound pedagogical supplement to any beginning band Method. I am particularly impressed with the Christian material and with how it can be used; not only to improve one's musicianship, but also to edify the student and teacher."

Bruce Pearson, composer- Best In Class & Standard of Excellence Comprehensive Band Methods

"We have used Heritage to teach phrasing, ensemble, and intonation skills to young instrumentalists. We use a good method book to properly establish the basics, and Heritage to further develop musicianship."

Eric Woods, Instrumental Director- Bob Jones Academy

"Heritage is proving to be a tremendous addition to our curriculum. It has a wealth of solos that may be used for chapel, church, classroom, or Sunday School. Our parents appreciate having the tunes in Heritage which can be played within the first few weeks."

Daniel E. Stockton, Director of Bands- Tri-City Christian School
