|
|
James Thompson includes a couple of CD's with his book, "The Buzzing Book" to be used as a sound model for his exercises. Can I use these as a sound model for Stamp's mouthpiece routines? I don't mean to substitute the Thompson routines for Stamps, but use it for an ideal sound to imitate. While I'm on the subject however, would there be any benefit to add Thompson's routines to James Stamp's? _________________ Bill Anderson

I use both Stamp and Thompson, but usually on a alternating basis; I seldom do Stamp 3/3a/3b if I do the Thompson. I recall reading somewhere that Thompson put together the Buzzing Book because he considered Stamp to be fairly advanced for many players. I think the approaches are complementary.
I have no opinion on what to use as a sound model for the mouthpiece work ... mine is based on what happens in my lessons. _________________ Steve Thiel |

I use both methods together. For my first session of the day, I do Stamp first thing. I use Thompson for the sesond session. Flow students for the third session. |

Do Stamp
Do Thompson
Do Stamp like Thompson - slides
Do Thompson like Stamp - no slides.
If your sound is good, you're doing it right. |
