“Both Marcel Galiègue and Jérôme Naulais studied the Trombone at the Paris Conservatoire. Both musicians have performed in a large number of concerts and recordings and have taken part in many international Master Classes. Their collaboration for Miniature Studies for Tenor Trombone, therefore, makes for a well-informed compilation. With few study books existing specifically for Tenor Trombone, 50 Miniature Studies fills a large gap. In Galiègue and Naulais' book, no tempo or dynamics are given as they are left to the teacher and student's discretion. With all fifty exercises addressing a variety of musical features, 50 Minature Studies for Tenor Trombone makes for an imperative aid to technical progression on the instrument. &rdquo.
