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.

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.
