The Belgian composer Nicholas Lens presents extremely varied etudes, exercises and simple phrases with wonderfully telling titles from poetry and everyday world for children and adults. For the most part the studies are tonal and simple and have no constructed line. They are not based on any educational concept but leave the musical dramatization to the pupils and teachers: 'Notes and rhythms are just notes and rhythms, they do not have that many rules, they do not have any pretension, they are just tools for you to use to express what you want to share'.

Albert Robert Mueller (Muller) was a German trombonist born in 1849. He initially received violin lessons and discovered his talent for trombone playing at the age of twelve. He eventually settled in Leipzig and became a member of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra as well as a teacher at the Royal Conservatory of Music. He wrote the School for Trombone in 1902. (Wikipedia) The School for Trombone (part of our Vintage Brass Series, not to be confused with the Technical Etudes) is a very detailed and comprehensive book in three volumes totalling 208 pages, the text being divided into German, English and Russian languages. * Volume I includes detailed lessons on music theory including all scales and keys, rhythm, time signatures, rests, accents, accidentals, explanations of tempo markings, dynamics, posture, tone, a table of positions and notes. The lessons go through different keys starting very slowly and methodically with short exercises....not going too fast for the beginning student. Along the way Mueller inserts easy duets to perform with teacher and student, including many Bach chorales, etc. to get tuning and tone solidified. * Volume II for the intermediate level student, begins with the first studies of slurs and legato. He introduces simple songs and famous melodies including more duets. The exercises get progressively more difficult and include the entire collection of ornaments. * Volume III, for the more advanced student, introduces tenor and alto clefs in scales and studies including more duets. Compiled by Gordon Cherry.

Elk volgend deel sluit perfect aan bij het vorige, waardoor de totale reeks zich ontwikkelt van zeer eenvoudigtot gemiddeld.Während Philip Sparke an diesen drei Etüdenbüchern arbeitete, beriet er sich mit vielen Musiklehrern, wie man jungen Bläsern am besten neue Noten beibringt und zugleich einen Rahmen schafft, in welchen sich neue musikalische Elemente in einer logischen Reihenfolge einfügen lassen. Starter Studies für Anfänger und Skilful Studies sowie Super Studies für etwas fortgeschrittenere Bläser enthalten motivierende Etüden, mit deren Hilfe die Schüler strukturiert ihren Tonumfang erweitern und technische Fähigkeiten, wie Ansatzvariationen oder Griffe erwerben können.
