Studies first: this is the simplest part of the method, where you start with long note exercises and get more complicated until you reach eighth notes and sixteenth notes. Arban's Famous Method is the Host celebrated and most successful instrumental music instruction book ever written. When I was a student, we had to play most of the exercises in Tenor clef (B flat treble) in 2 keys, and Alto clef also in two keys. Arban Method For Trombone And Baritone has been brought up to date to the 21st century, enhancing and expanding the complete Arban text, and addressing new skills and techniques developed up to current times.

it's my belief that if the piece lies well enough on the slide we can play as just about as fast as trumpets.If the situation cannot be resolved to your satisfaction, Cherry Classics Music will graciously issue you a refund as long as we are notified within 30 days of your purchase!

Those comments amount to practice tips, and may help Isaiah (and others) leverage the value in the book. Raph's exceptional edition also includes a CD of MP3 accompaniments to the 12 Celebrated Fantaisies and Airs Varies, as performed by John Walker, for a complete instructional package for trombone students. I hope this isn't too advanced of a question for here, but I wonder what speeds some of you guys are achieving (cleanly) in the Fantasy Variations. Therefore, it is necessary to be clear about what you want to study at each moment and in this way, look for the most suitable exercise. If you have the complete book it will have dozens of pages of slow melodies, usually 3-4 lines each.In preparing My First Arlxm, great care has been taken to preserve the original format and musical and educational objectives for which the Famous Method is so well known, Consequently, many of the exercises and studies are exactly as they are in the original book, however, there are many areas where the studies started at a level of difficulty which made it unrealistic for many young players.

Shenk for many things, but primarily for helping me build a base of technical skills at a young age that I can rely on to this day. I have, of course, heard many fine teachers and players say "Oh, I never use Arban's--it's so unmusical.As well, Gordon has taught hundreds of Brass students for over 30 years at the University of British Columbia and many international leading music festivals. Also, he has taken many of the most relevant and transposed them into different keys to maximize the effectiveness of the most valuable studies.

Imagine, then, my delight in learning of a new, expanded edition of Arban with commentary by Brian Bowman and Joseph Alessi, two of the brightest stars in today's low brass world. Alessi has taught at Temple University in Philadelphia and the Grand Teton Music Festival in Wyoming. Isaiah - I have that Arban's book as well, however, the best one to have (particularly if you are seriously going to use it) is the one edited by Joe Alessi and Brian Bowman.It's very easy to take an exercise in B flat, and just imagine that the key signature is B natural instead. When I was in school, my band teacher picked out pages for me to practice, but I have a hard time deciding what I should practice out of it. Joseph Alessi (trombón principal de la Filarmónica de Nueva York) ha escrito todo el texto de trombón para esta edición. Best of all, the book itself is spiral-bound so as to lay flat on the music stand, a most welcome innovation! This made it useless to me and I think it should be very clearly stated at the point of purchase that the book is in the clef of F.
