Next after Getchell 'Second Book of Practical Studies' ???

[RogerB]

I'm an beginner/intermediate player just finishing The Getchell/Hovey "Second book of Practical Studies for Cornet and Trumpet"

What could you recommend that would be a similar but follow-on graduated etude book in that style?

I'm blessed with a remarkable teacher, but this is not his strength.

Thanks for your thoughts and help.

You may want to consider the Rubank books. I like the Rubank Intermediate Method book to follow the Getchell, vol. 2. There's also a great set of books by Gilles Senon - volumes B and C are about the level of where the Getchell ends, but they seem to be only available from Europe. Melodies are a little "out there" but the range and rhythms of those etudes make a great progression.

I also like Hering etude books. If I'm not mistaken Forty Progressive Etudes would be a good choice and possibly Hering 32 Etudes, depending on your range. They tend to go to F and G on the top of the staff.

Hope that helps and good luck!

Thank you everyone. I've made a list and will take a quick look at the music store tomorrow. Their selection is often limited but it will give me a starting place. Have a lesson on Tuesday so will review these with my teacher then.

I've reviewed most of these on-line and they are right on target.

Thanks again,

Here are a few etude books that could logically follow completion of Getchell book #2:

Sigmund Hering’s “Thirty-Two Etudes”

J.L. Small’s “Twenty-Seven Melodious and Rhythmical Exercises”

The Getchell books are terrific. The etudes are generally short and most don’t go above an F. That allows students to work on musicianship and technical skills from an early stage. One potential downside of that approach is that some students finish Getchell with the technical skills to tackle the books listed above, but without the requisite range or endurance. The following books would be better suited in that case:

Sigmund Hering’s “Forty Progressive Etudes” (start at around #22) or Hering’s “Thirty-Eight Recreational Studies” (start at around #10).

Good luck!
