Maury Deutsch's 'The Extended Trumpet Range' is subtitled 'An approach to utilizing isotonic and isometric techniques from C below bass clef to triple high C.' The first sample image after the cover shows the range he means, and I have to say, a range that big could be VERY useful. This books is long and in depth, taking you through all areas of study surrounding range including theoretical basis of playing, warm ups, modes, isometric drills, pedal tones, and so much more. The writing is precise and specific, laying out a plan of study to help increase your range meaningfully and sizeably.

In the introduction to 'Corners' Allan Colin writes: 'If you glance through these pages, do not be fooled by the diatonically simple configuration of notes. The challenge here lies in doing these exercises from top to bottom exactly as specified. The goal is to strengthen weak corner muscles which plague many trumpet players. In your effort to accomplish this it is imperative not to overdo it. As with any practice session where you are trying to straighten out a problem, the 'warm-up' and 'warm-down' exercises are essential The warm-up and warm-down exercises here are geared to prepare you for and relax you from this short but strenuous work-out.' This book is broken up into four sections, including articulations, corner 'close-ups', chromatics, and warm downs, each with an explanation of how to proceed to get the strongest embouchure possible.
