Try Advanced trumpet solos volume one by Robert Nagel along with the cd. It should help improve your technique and performances.
What book should i get to better my trumpet playing?
There are tons of books out there so i cant suggest one book, but i can tell you what to look for.
If you want better tone and range look for a book that has all of the scales, and I mean ALL (major, minor, chromatic, pentatonic, etc.) the scales. It should also have warm-ups in it like most books. Stay clear of the books that just have only songs in it. The book should focus on scales. Now when you do find a book just practice out of it at least 20 min a day.
Good luck playing.
Reply:get an arbans book. it is a staple for good trumpet players.
Reply:There%26#039;s a book called Concert%26#039;s and contests.
It has some great solos.
It%26#039;s printed and published by Rubank.
It starts out easy and then gets harder and harder.
I think you%26#039;ll like it. It helped me.
Reply:you don%26#039;t need a book. play long tones- a LOT of long tones. at least half an hour a day. for range, pick a starting note and play up chromatically, as high as you can, and hold the notes out. then play down as far as you can. important: when you%26#039;re having trouble with a note, its very easy to just skip over it and go to one you can play well. dont do that, it doesnt help at all.
