The Ultimate Technical Studies
How to Use This Book
These exercises are to be played at a speed where MISTAKES ARE NOT MADE. (Always Use a metronome) If you try to play these exercises too fast, you are only practicing and reinforcing mistakes. It is much better to play slowly, accurately and consciously listening to your sound. It is more important to achieve a warm rich tone and pleasing articulation. DON'T PRACTICE MISTAKES! MAKE MUSIC (critically listen to what you are playing)
We are musicians and the reason we play the trumpet is to obtain 'musical experiences' that allow us to express our feelings and emotions. This is what practicing should be, working slowly and methodically on skill development - to obtain musical experiences. There are no shortcuts. It takes time and hard work to learn the art of trumpet playing. You will improve much faster through skill building. The rewards for your hard work can be amazing. YOU will be able to play a piece or phrase so beautifully, that no other person could do it better.
EXERCISES The exercises are arranged in the Circle of Fifths, The key of C followed by G, D and so on. Each key has 43 exercises - 23 Major exercises and 20 parallel Minor exercises. (You could reverse the signatures and play the first 23 in Minor and the next 20 in Major!) You should start practicing these exercises at about 60 BPM and skill build to 130 BPM. The volume should be about MF to F, a full rounded sound. Concentrate on the quality of your sound. Is your playing full, warm, rich, musical and pleasing?

The Trumpet
Trumpet [Fr. trompette; Ger. Trompete, It. tromba, Sp. trompeta]. A soprano brass instrument commonly about 1.4 m. (4 1/2 ft.) in tube length, folded twice to a narrow rectangular shape about 35 cm. (14 in.) long. The trumpet is the highest brass instrument in register, above the tuba, euphonium, trombone, sousaphone, and french horn. A person who plays the trumpet is called a trumpeter or simply, trumpet player. Its powerful tone is created by lip vibration against its cup-shaped mouthpiece. A trumpet consists of a cylindrical tube, shaped in a primary oblong loop that flares into a bell. The brass family can trace its ancestry back to herald trumpets, hunting horns, and military bugles. The valved trumpet was developed in the 1820s. Modern trumpets also have three piston valves as well as small, secondary tubing that act as tuning slides to adjust the tone. Most trumpet parts since about 1900 are written either for Bb trumpet, sounding one tone lower, or for C trumpet at concert pitch. Its brilliant sound has since made it indispensable in a wide variety of ensembles. |
