Since it first appeared in the 1930s, the concise, clear content of the best-selling A Tune A Day series has revolutionised music-making in the classroom and the home.
Now, for the first time, Paul Herfurth's original books have been completely rewritten with new music and the latest in instrumental technique for a new generation of musicians.
