Arban Expansion Pack: Classic Exercises Adapted for Today's Musician. 1st edition

Abstract

First published circa 1859 Jean-Baptiste Arban’s Grande méthode complète pour cornet à pistons et de saxhorn is an integral part of the practice routines of trumpeters around the globe. The First Studies, which stress an even tone and attack in the middle register are among the most frequently assigned exercises in our studies. This book expands on Arban’s work by presenting these exercises in tonal patterns that we frequently encounter in music of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
