There are pieces of _ music devoted to different stytes and also to develop a more general and ames f nUSI- cal vocabulary. | _ Keep lots of enthusiasm in your daily practice and don’t be dissuaded by those who try to overcomplicate the learning of this instrument. _ No one can deny that it takes a lot of effort and total dedication to become a highly polished trumpeter, but the dividends, rewards, and satisfaction you will experience when you reach your goals are immeasurable. The thrill of playing in a great orchestra, regardless of your musical background, is unlimited. That is because the trumpet has a voice with an unmistakable personality: a voice with power, energy, strength, and incredible dynamic possibilities. We should feel pleased to have chosen the trumpet as the instrument for our careers and love it. This devotion is the only way to learn how to play it and how to live with it. -_ My hope in these pages is to give you something of lasting value that you can contin- ue to draw upon throughout the years to come. I also want to devote this book to all the ‘great masters who have contributed to and been a positive influence in my Career, and I ~ hope will also in yours. | This work is dedicated to all those great musicians who have paved the way through- out their lives in order to improve trumpet techniques, to those whose single purpose was to build musical instruments of impeccable quality, and to those who have written music for trumpet. This book is for all of them, and for those who love music, the trumpet, and its sound. : Concerning Arban Since Jean-Baptiste Arban published his trumpet method in 1864, it has been the foundation for practically all the great trumpet masters of the past and present, and surely will continue to be into the future. With this in mind, it is with great respect and love that I have included his studies in my method. ~ Note that the Arban book has not only been present in our libraries, but his —— also resides in every refined trumpet performance. It is my opinion that no school of music should i ignore such a valuable work.
