44 Melodious Warm Up Exercises

To set up a hard and fast formula for trumpet players to follow as a daily warm-up would be impractical since no two individuals would require the same procedure or expect identical results. Therefore, this book has categorized the many phases of the warm-up in the following: buzzing the mouthpiece; long tones; flexibility; scales; single, double and triple tonguing; velocity; range. The players can then select exercises from each of the categories as they alone can determine how much and what phases of the warm-up will fulfill the immediate needs.
