GIA Publications lists updated middle level musician resource in 2026 catalog

GIA Publications reported that its Habits of a Successful Middle Level Musician series includes teacher tips and full scores for all exercises. The publisher lists the 676-page softcover book in its 2026 new releases catalog.

The resource contains more than 300 sequenced exercises covering warm-ups, chorales, sight-reading etudes and rhythm vocabulary. GIA Publications states the material suits full bands or individual players in their second year and beyond.

The book addresses specific technique challenges including clarinet transitions, trombone positions, flute fingerings and percussion sticking. GIA Publications says the sequential format builds rhythm reading and sight-reading skills, while chorales develop tone quality and ensemble sound.
