This series isn't intended for a self-instructional settingthe exercises include accompaniments for a teacher to play along with the student(s)but its content is comprehensive enough that it could be used for self-instruction as well. The writing is basic and straightforward, without the pally or occasionally hackneyed presentation of some of the other series profiled here. Of all these series, thisalong with Carl Fischer's "ABC's of Strings" book and DVD series by Janice Tucker Rhoda (which is an ongoing series but has no new or forthcoming 2009 titles)is probably the most traditional in instructional style. For adults. New for 2009: Bass 101 (ISBN 978-0-7390-5695-0), Guitar 101 (ISBN 978-0-7390-5694-3), and Keyboard 101 (ISBN 978-0-7390-5693-6).
