Hi guys, a couple quick questions:

I went to the top Coast Guard band concert last night, and afterwards talked to the Principal trumpet player. He recomended the book Colin Lip Flexibilities. Is this a good book? Also these are the books that I have now:
Arbans
Clarke Technical Studies
Schlossberg Daily Drills
Saint Jacomes
What other books should I add to my list? I'm not talking about Claude Gordon or Caruso type stuff that are a whole method, but what book like Colin's should I add?
Thanks

I would recommend the Brandt, Koprausch, and Bousquette etude books. Sorry if these spellings are poor!

There are two books I would like to recommend: Jake's Methody by Don Jacoby and Trumpet Techniques by Louis Davidson. Both of these are not real "meaty" in terms of exercises like the Charlier book, but offer exercises that concentrate on maintianing your fundamentals. Also, they offer common sense approach to trumpet playing which I find helpful whenever I seem to get off track and need to regroup and refocus my approach to playing.

Funny you say that because I am buying the jacome book and the Collins flex. book too as part of my Claude gordon Systematic thing that is part of the lessons.

He also uses Walter M. Smith Lip Flexibilities and the herbert L. Clarke Technical Studies and Charaterictic Studies in his lessons.

Coast Gaurd?....oh, you mean the Puddle Pirates...

I'm sorry, I am a Zoomie (AKA Air Force) so I had to say something.

I am a huge fan of Arbans. I love that book. I have several other custom made books by teachers and various players that they have given me, but I think that as far as a published book...go Arbans.

In Christ,

One I forgot to add that is simply ESSENTIAL! The Cichowiz (sp?) flow studies book. This book, when practiced correctly, will do wonders for your sound, flexibility through all registers of the horn, and projection, endurance, intonation, ETC! I highly recommend this book. It has been the single most important book I've worked out of since getting to college.
