Méthode complète de Cornet à Pistons for the Cornet, Trumpet or Saxhorn, composed by Guillaume Balay is a method for beginners in two volumes and one of the most complete for these instruments. This first volume focuses on the establishment of the music and on the quality of the sonority obtained. The first two chapters will therefore focus on the establishment of the rhythms. They are followed by some studies of scales and liaisons. The last three chapters concentrate on learning how to play certain nuances of melody, arpeggios and syncopation. All techniques acquired while studying this volume would not be fully effective if not followed by the study of Méthode complète de Cornet à Pistons Volume 2. Guillaume Balay (1871-1943) is a French soloist and composer. As a member of the military, he was the Head of Music for the Republican Guard and composed many chamber music and solo music pieces, for cornets and other wind instruments. He was also a respected music teacher.

“To this day, Eugène Bozza (1905-1991) remains one of the most prolific composers for wind instruments, despite being a violinist himself. His Allegro and Finale for bass brass or Double Bass with Piano accompaniment is an exquisite and unique addition to the repertoire. During his studies at the Paris Conservatoire, Bozza won prizes for Violin, conducting and composition, as well as the Grand Prix de Rome. He then conducted the orchestra of the Opéra-Comique and became Head of the Conservatoire in Valenciennes, whilst remaining a prominent composer. Composed in 1953, Bozza's Allegro and Finale reflects the composer's success in composing for a variety of instrumentations. As music educationalist, Paul Griffiths has written of Bozza's compositions, ”“his works reveal melodic fluency, elegance of structure and a consistenly sensitive concern of instrumental capabilities.”“&rdquo.

“Composed by Jeanine Rueff, Sonata for Alto Saxophone solo is a piece for advanced players lasting 12 and a half minutes. Written in 9 pages, this piece, quite challenging (tempo, key ranges), would be perfect for musicians of advanced level and above, while requiring some serious work to obtain the correct result. Wonderfully composed, very technical yet very lyrical, this piece is really enjoyable and can be used for recital or contests. Jeanine Rueff composed numerous pieces for Saxophones that were often used in contests, as well as many pieces for Saxhorn, Clarinet, Horn and Cornet.â€.

Freely inspired by the famous Raymond Queneau's book, I wanted to write a piece that could be played by low-pitched solo brass instrument. It can be played by a Tuba, an Euphonium or a Bb Saxhorn, a Tuba or a F Horn player. This version is for Tuba. The others are available as well. This piece can be played from an exam from 8 years of instrument practice.
