Only on rare occasions are trumpet players allowed to break free from their usual role as guardians of the tonic and dominant and punctuators of sforzandi. Composers have typically given important lyric passages to singers, string players, woodwinds, and pianists, but rarely to the brass. In this book, however, the trumpet player is the featured soloist on every page.
Classic Style is a selection of favorites from the orchestral, operatic, and solo repertoire. This presents a challenge for better endurance, greater range, and more refinement. Hence, trumpeters will be further equipped to assume a soloist’s mindset. While transposing is encouraged and inspired performing is expected, boring playing is forbidden!
The comments and quotes that you find throughout the book are reminders of lessons learned from many outstanding performers and instructors who have motivated generations to both pursue and love the art of music-making.
The list of pieces and periods covered in these 100 pages is immense. Too big, in fact, to list it all here. From Bizet to Mahler, from Gershwin to Grieg, there is something for everyone.
I have included the entire table of contents in the samples to the left, so give it a browse, try out some etudes, and then click above for an immediate digital download.
