1. The brass pedagogy of Harold Hill
2. Cup depth, mouthpiece aerodynamics, and trumpet (throwing) range
3. A longitudinal study of trumpet mass and medical expenses
4. The virtuosi of the sudrophone
5. A comparison of conservatory costs and automobile age
6. The second trumpet parts of great trumpet concerti
7. A study comparing time spent mouthpiece clocking and quantity of music prepared |
To these, I would add:
8. Valve port alignment under conditions of low illumination
9. Self-hypnosis and placebo effects in mouthpiece selection
10. Advanced insecticide application in vintage trumpet cases
11. History of mouthpiece puller devices
12. Recycling of used trumpet lubricants
13. Tuning of contemporary and historic hosaphones |
Also Good Reading:
