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.
