Foreword —
In modern music, the brass instruments ore considered today as solo
instruments. This is of major importance because the modern composer
now regards the brasses as performing instruments in the same general
manner as the strings. The outmoded percussion treatment given to the
trumpets and the trombones by former camposers, naturally has been r
flected in the study literature of past years.
Velocity studies have long been available for the piano and the violin,
but this volume constitutes the first of its kind for a brass instrument. It is
to be noted, however, that the construction of these velocity studies, in
contrast to those available for violin and piono, takes into consideration
contemporary harmonic structures,
David Gornston is widely known for his innovations in modern teaching
techniques and his PROGRESSIVE SWING READINGS are widely used by
instructors as o new standard in the field of solfeggio.
Harry Huffnagle enjoys on enviable reputation as a professional
arranger who has contributed liberally to modern study literature.
