This diverse collection of 42 etudes for the advancing trumpetstudent contains the most essential studies that provide challengesand repertoire to help develop tone, technical facility, range,flexibility, articulation, and above all—musical concepts.The studies chosen are from the core of trumpet pedagogy–Arban,Brandt, Hering, and Bordogni, among others–and have withstoodthe test of time helping musicians grow for many generations. Theyhave been carefully selected, edited, and arranged in a pedagogicalsequence by Christopher Moore. Also included is a helpful sectionon how to practice and properly prepare each etude. This collectionis a welcome addition to the trumpet repertoire for players wantingto improve their skills.
This collection of studies is intended as a primer forintermediate to advanced younger trumpet players thatare either preparing to enter college or are already in theirearly years of university instruction. The texts from whichthese studies have been selected have been the core oftrumpet pedagogy for many, many years. While there arenumerous, high quality new trumpet studies available, therevered studies in this collection continue to provide a largevariety of challenges and repertoire to help develop tone,xa0technical facility, range, flexibility, articulation, and aboveall, musical concepts.In preparing any etude, I cannot emphasize enough thatwhich is most important to the final product: beauty in soundand musical concept. This rule holds true regardless ofthe speed indicated for the study. While maintaining thisconcept may seem easier with slower, more lyrical etudes,it is equally important with etudes more technical in nature.
