Summary of this method
Designed as a gradual introduction to the trombone, this method guides students from the very first fundamentals through to the "intermediate course". The progression focuses on developing good habits from the outset: posture, instrument hold, air management and embouchure placement, in order to achieve a stable, controlled sound. Throughout the lessons, students develop their rhythmic accuracy, sense of dynamics and sight-reading skills, while consolidating essential technical skills (articulation, transitions, intonation and register control).
The educational structure, designed for use in a conservatory or music school setting, allows students to progress steadily, with clearly identifiable objectives. This gradual approach is particularly suitable for teachers looking for a reliable resource for planning a year-long course, as well as for beginner trombonists seeking a coherent framework for their practice sessions. The texts in French, English and German make the instructions easy to understand and make the book practical in a bilingual or international context.
