Veldkamp Tuba Studies Bundle
Our friend Erik Veldkamp has been hard at work creating this set of study books for tuba. Erik has been taking study books from the literature of other instruments, such as violin, oboe, and flute, and expertly transcribing them for brass instruments. He adapts each etude to suit the target instrument by transposing it into the standard range, and by making other modifications to the music so that each study is perfect. This collection includes music in a variety of styles and difficulties, but these etudes are largely more suitable to intermediate and advanced players. The links below let you preview each of the books in this bundle, and play through the studies that are provided in the sample pages. This limited-time 52% off offer won’t be around for long!

Swing Starter Kit Complete for Trombone (Vols.1-2)
The Swing Starter Kit is extremely exciting and came about from lots of customer feedback and requests. To learn to play in the jazz style, for both beginner players and established professionals, it is best to do so by imitating a great model. To make this possible at home, Erik Veldkamp wrote 91 play-alongs for trombone, the first of which are in a call-and-response (or question-and-answer) format. Along with a rhythm section, you hear Erik play the phrases first with correct jazz articulation and style, then you imitate it immediately after. For some reason, books like this has never been written, until now, and I am thrilled for you to see them. These books are divided into 3 parts: 1. 30 basic swing exercises with a drum track to accompany you; 2. 31 swing exercises with a rhythm section accompanying you; 3. 30 swing studies with a rhythm track (+ complete demo recordings) In the samples, I am placing the first of each section so you can see how simply these begin. The audio for the respective pages is below, so you can play along for free. I guarantee that if you are an aspiring jazz player or a teacher of some, this book is going to become the backbone of your jazz-style practice.

Complete Drone Studies (6 Books)
Erik Veldkamp's Drone Study Series was one of the most popular releases ever. Why? Every aspiring trumpet player, every professional, and every trumpet instructor in the world advocates for the use of a drone during practice to establish a solid pitch center and focus your mind and body during practice. In this series, Erik wrote a book that covers all areas of your fundamentals, culminating in an incredible book of performance study play-alongs called Sound Scapes. Today, we are bundling the entire series together for the first time ever so you can grab all of the books for half price. This won't last long, you've been warned! Why should you practice using a drone? Trumpet teachers and professionals advocate for using a drone across fundamental trumpet practice due to its multifaceted benefits. The drone serves as a reliable pitch reference, aiding in intonation and pitch accuracy development. It fosters a strong sense of relative pitch, crucial for tuning. In articulation, the drone provides a rhythmic foundation, refining attacks and releases. Throughout fundamental exercises, the drone promotes consistent tempo and rhythm. Its sustained sound encourages a nuanced exploration of tone, scales, and dynamics, enhancing overall musicality. Integrating a drone into practice ensures a comprehensive and disciplined approach, contributing to a trumpet player's technical proficiency and expressive capabilities.
