Summary of This Collection
This educational collection with CD is aimed at trombonists and euphonium players who wish to progress step by step, from the very first levels. Published in French, it emphasizes essential objectives to start well and consolidate the basics: breath control, embouchure stability, centered sound production, clear articulation, and management of transitions. Thanks to a presentation oriented towards "learning," it is suitable both for students practicing independently and for guided work with a teacher.
The advantage of the audio support is to transform the practice session into a true musical situation. The CD serves as a reference to develop pulse, refine the ear, and check the accuracy of attacks and note endings. It is also an excellent motivational tool: the student moves beyond simple technical exercises to focus on listening, consistency, and musicality. The trombone/euphonium compatibility, with BC/TC reading, facilitates the integration of the collection into wind orchestra classes, instrumental music training programs, or "brass" pathways where students can read in different clefs.
Authored by Peter de Boer and Simon Lutz, this educational collection (published in 1998) aims for smooth progression, with content adapted to an easy level. It naturally fits into a daily practice routine: short but effective sessions, review of fundamentals, then musical application. A relevant choice to build solid foundations, gain confidence, and develop active listening from the first years of practice.
