Memento - Einblas- und Technische Übungen

Memento - Einblas- und Technische Übungen A collection of technical and warm-ups exercices for individual or group use. The value of this book by Pascal Favre is that it popularises and condenses the most advanced and practical knowledge about current brass teaching (also useful for woodwind) and makes it available not only to beginners but also to those who have not had the opportunity of adequate early instruction. It certainly does not have the intention of replacing the existing standard works - from which in any case the writer drew his inspiration. It intends to initiate and introduce the player to these key works. Amateurs who are short of time will, however, find it an effective way of maintaining their daily practice. We should also point out that the book is suitable for both individual and group work. Many music society teachers and leaders will now have available a basic tool which was formerly lacking. Jean-Pierre Mathez This collection is not strictly speaking a tutor. It offers a series of exercises which every brass player ought to practise regularly in order to learn maintain or develop the basic elements of instrumental performance. Pascal Favre
