Trombone Lessons in Weir, TX

Instruments: Trombone Euphonium Tuba Music

For Beginner, I usually use Hal Leonard's Essential book for younger students and Rubank's elementary book for older students. These books can use up to intermediate students and some easy solo pieces from the trombone gems collection by H.A. VanderCook. For intermediate to advanced students playing trombone for more than two years, I would use Melodious Etudes for Trombone Selected from the Vocalises of Marco Bordogni book one and Arban Complete Method for Trombone and Euphonium.

Instruments: Trombone

I start with whichever beginner's trombone book the student has, or can create copies of exercises from various books of my own to supplement. I have many daily exercises and warm ups I've collected from professionals I've studied with or had master's classes with over the years for beginners, intermediates, as well as advanced performers. I concentrate on daily study with various ways of ending boredom in the practice room, performing and training in different environments, with all emphasis towards the performance aspect itself.

For beginners, I personally recommend the Essential Elements Book. If you are barely starting on an instrument, make sure you get book 1.

For intermediate students such as older middle school students, Essential Elements Books 2 and 3 would be my personal recommendation. Read More
