For the teacher of instrumental music classes, individual differences among students are inevitable. Unfortunately, the lack of flexible materials frequently forces teachers to adopt a quasi-instructional procedure best described as lockstep, where all students in the class rehearse each exercise until the slow members of the class succeed or until the teacher gives up. The Individualized Instructor was designed with the expectation that students are different. With this method, high-, average-, and low-achieving students in a class are able to progress simultaneously at their own rate according to their interest and ability. In addition, the flexibility of the instructional format often allows twelve or more students to perform different musical material simultaneously, thereby eliminating the “follow the leader†approach to music learning. All study materials in the series are musical. Nonmusical exercises are excluded in favor of folk song literature, musical rounds, and musical ensembles. Furthermore, The Individualized Instructor encourages students to think about their music: to analyze unfamiliar material, generalize previously learned concepts and skills, and synthesize all elements into a musically proficient performance. In addition, this series develops many fundamentals (tonality, phrasing, tempo, and musical style) through the use of the singing voice. Singing best provides the “musical†experience that, subsequently, can be applied to the development of musically sensitive instrumental performance. Books 1, 2, and 3 and the supplementary books ensure that these fundamental ideas are carried well beyond the first year of instruction.

This book contains 20 vocalises originally intended for the development and training of the singing voice, but which will also encourage many aspects of performance for trombone players, such as tone quality and phrasing. These attractive pieces are not only useful as studies, but also work well as performance pieces - either with a piano accompaniment using the printed score, or playing along with the CD. On the CD Ian Bousfield, principal trombonist of the Vienna Philharmonic, plays all the vocalises. In addition, the CD contains the piano accompaniments to play along with.Dit boek bevat twintig vocalises - die oorspronkelijk zijn ontwikkeld voor de scholing en training van de zangstem, maar ook veel aspecten van het spel van trombonisten zullen bevorderen, zoals toonvorming en frasering. Deze fraaiestukken zijn nietalleen nuttig als etudes, maar doen het ook goed bij optredens - met pianobegeleiding (die is meegeleverd) of met de cd. Naast de meespeeltracks staan op de cd ook de complete vocalises, ingespeeld door Ian Bousfield, solotrombonist van het WienerPhilharmoniker. Dieses Buch enthält 20 Vokalisen, die ursprünglich für die Entwicklung und das Training von Singstimmen gedacht waren, aber auch viele Aspekte des Posaunenspiels, wie z. B. Tonqualität und Phrasierung fördern. Die reizvollen Stücke eignen sich nicht nur zum Ã?ben, sondern können auch sehr gut aufgeführt werden - mit einem Pianisten, der aus den Klaviernoten im Buch spielt oder mit der beiliegenden CD. Auf der CD spielt Ian Bousfield, Soloposaunist der Wiener Philharmoniker, alle Vokalisen vor. AuÃ?erdem enthält die CD alle Klavierbegleitungen.Belcanto for Trombone contient vingt vocalises écrites lâ??origine pour le travail et le développement de la voix chantée. Ces études mélodiques, qui contribuent particulièrement au développement du phrasé et de la musicalité, sont parfaitement adaptées pour le trombone. Plus que de simples exercices, elles constituent dâ??excellentes pièces de récital que lâ??on peut interpréter soit avec un pianiste accompagnateur (accompagnements de piano joints au recueil) soit avec lâ??accompagnement de piano enregistré sur le compact disc. Sur le compact disc inclus, vous trouverez une version intégrale de chaque vocalise, dont lâ??interprétation a été confiée Ian Bousfield,trombone solo de lâ??Orchestre Philharmonique de Vienne. Bel Canto for Trombone racchiude 20 studi melodici scritti originariamente per la voce. Nel CD incluso è presentata sia la versione integrale di tutti i brani che quella col solo accompagnamento (play-along). Gli spartiti del piano sono inclusi nel libro.

Ralph Sauer has beautifully edited Volume I of the Milde Concert Studies. They will add much to the Trombone study/etude literature. We look forward to many performers using these valuable studies to improve their technique and musicianship.Originally written for the bassoon, these studies were favorites of the great trombone teacher, Emory Remington (1891-1971). While perhaps not “concert†material, they provide much more musical interest than the typical etude book.bBr />I have added dynamics and changed phrasings to be more suitable for the trombone while keeping the wide tessitura and the many clef changes of the original. Alternate positions are included to make the music more fluid. I have not indicated whether an alternate position is to be played slightly higher or lower. The trombonist should know what adjustments are needed, and adding the small sharps or flats would only clutter the notation.These enjoyable and challenging studies will provide many hours of pleasurable practice. I have returned to these two volumes often over the years and hope that you will also find them useful and rewarding.Ralph Sauer.

“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.

This new edition of Jean Baptiste Arban's Fourteen Characteristic Studies for Trombone, edited by Alan Raph, was specifically written to provide the student with suitable material with which to test his powers of endurance, according to Arban himself.The following fourteen studies have been specifically written to provide the student withsuitable material with which to test his powers of endurance. In taking up these studies, he willdoubtless be fatigued, especially at the outset, by those numbers requiring an unusual length ofbreath. However, through careful study and experience he will learn to overcome the difficultiesand will acquire the resources which will enable him to master this particular phase of playingwith ease. As a means to this end, attention is drawn to cantabile passages in particular, whichshould be played with the utmost expression, yet at the same time with as much modified toneas possible. On the cornet, as with the voice, clear tones may be obtained by widening thelips and veiled tones by contracting them. This happy circumstance allows the performer anopportunity to rest while still continuing to play, and at the same time enables him to introduceeffective contrasts into the execution. It should be noted that by little artifices of this kind, andby skillfully conserving his resources, the player will reach the end of the longest and mostfatiguing pieces, not only without difficulty, but even with a reserve of strength and power,which, when brought to bear on the final measures of a performance, never fails to impress anaudience.At this point my task as professor (using the written instead of the spoken word) willend. There are things which appear clear enough when stated verbally but which when writtendown on paper cause confusion, seem obscure, and even sometimes appear trivial.There are other things of such an elevated and subtle nature that neither speech norword can clearly explain them. They are felt, they are conceived, but they are not to be explained;and yet these things constitute the elevated style, the grand ecole, which it is my ambition toestablish for the cornet, just as they already exist for singing and for the various kinds of otherinstruments.Those of my readers who are ambitious and who want to attain this high level ofperfection, should above all things, always try to hear good music well interpreted. Theymust seek out, among singers and instrumentalists, the most illustrious models, and by doingthis purify their taste, develop their sentiments, and bring themselves as near as possible tothat which is beautiful. Perhaps then the innate spark which may someday be destined todemonstrate their own talent, will reveal itself and render them worthy of being, in their turn,cited and imitated in the future.

“ The Trombone player's Vade Mecum was composed by André Lafosse for advanced trombonists who are preparing for their exams. Divided into three parts, this piece covers all the necessary elements to prepare the exams: - The first one focuses on technical challenges: minor common chords, melodic minor scales, diminished sevenths, high and low scales, chromatic scales progressing in thirds - The second corresponds to a scale of an octave in semi-quavers, each of its degrees being the starting point for an additional scale. Each scale is followed by its chords and the seven degrees and octave can be played both descending and ascending. This second part on its own represents 30 exercises of scales. - The last part is quite difficult with 25 exercises covering most of the other difficulties that could be encountered. These pieces are perfect to get ready and to overcome all the small weaknesses a player can have before a big contest or recital. André Lafosse (1890-1975) was a trombonist and a professor at Paris Conservatoire. He also composed a suite for brass quintet called 'Suite Breve' and recorded with Stravinsky.â€.
