It is so easy to dismiss a rhythm book as something for beginners, not worth a serious musician's time and energy. We can already read, what more do we need? I felt this way as well, then I was VERY glad that I did not put this book down after the first few pages. Once you get past the first 10 pages of basics you are left with a book of such creative jazz and rock etudes that you wouldn't even consider it to have been written with the intention of improving your reading. This is a fully fledged contemporary jazz rock etude book that gets you reading complex grooves that will keep you coming back for more.

Read below what Roger Smith had to say about completing this momumental work from the manuscripts of Ernest Williams. We are all thankful for his hard work: 'The Ernest S. Williams Modern Method for Trumpet or Cornet is generally recognized by teachers and students alike as the finest and most complete ' School ' for Trumpet and Cornett hat has ever been written. Both the technical and the musical aspects of these volumes reflect the genius of Dr. Williams as a musician, and as a teacher.' 'I was privileged to study both Trombone and Baritone with Dr. Williams, in fact he was my only teacher on either instrument. After graduation from the Ernest Williams School of Music, I became a member of the faculty, and assisted Dr. Williams with the teaching of Brasses, under his direct guidance, and using this material. Dr. Williams commenced the revision of the books at that time for Trombone and Baritone, a task which he was never to complete. This revision, based largely on his manuscripts, is the result of my training as his pupil and assistant, and of my experience as teacher of Trombone at the Juilliard School of Music.' 'The principal problems were two; proper introduction of the positions on the trombone, which are more difficul to learn than the valve combinations on Baritone or Trumpet, and the contrasting techniques of legato and slur on the two instruments. For these reasons some chapters of the book have been revised considerably, and some new material added from time to time.' If you do not know this book, you have to take a look.

The title says it all: a series of graded exercises designed to develop the upper register and the endurance necessary to support it. After an extensive preface Williams takes you systematically up into the stratosphere and gives you valuable direction along the way. A short and sweet book that really hits the spot when it comes to high range development.

“Considered as one of the hardest works for solo Trombone, Piece in Eb minor by Joseph Guy Ropartz is a mix of Romantic and Impressionist influences. This piece requires a strong endurance: the second part starting after the half of the first page shows the hardest run, when most players would already start lacking of endurance! Great piece for recitals and exams for advanced players, it will be beneficial to strengthen your breathing abilities while playing. Joseph Guy Ropartz is a French composer and conductor. He composed Violin sonatas, Cello sonatas, string quartets, Piano trios, string trios and five symphonies. He also wrote some poetry.&rdquo.
