Beschreibung
This bass clef edition is ideal for Euphonium or Baritone players.
Parpetudes is a comprehensive brass tutor which does not cover such an
expanse of ability as the Jock McKenzie Tutor Book for Young Brass Players,
but instead provides significantly more material for each new skill
introduced. Parpetudes contains 86 tunes & 10 exercises. 23 of the tunes
have a set of downloadable backing tracks (for a small charge), realised by
Mark Walker, at two speeds, making it a useful resource for Wider
Opportunities Tuition in Schools. The backing tracks are also fun to play
along with at home. The remaining tunes have a set of Keyboard
Accompaniments, also downloadable for a small charge, by Jock McKenzie. The
Backing Tracks & Keyboard Accompaniments are available for Bb, Eb & F pitched
instruments. Review by Robert Priestley, brass teacher with Salisbury Young
Musicians: This is a real teacher-led book that prioritises elements that
will be of real use to pupils who join an ensemble quickly rather than just
pushing range - rhythm rather than range is the underlying concept. With 40
pages of exercises and tunes, clearly typeset to aid reading, there is a
wealth of sideways material (the first 5 notes last until page 14) and the
whole book basically covers an octave but includes useful chromatic notes
within that range. This is a good book that prioritises music over text and
leaves the teaching to the teacher. I'm going to use it!
