Dreeze-easy method 7 Tormbora— by Jotn Kinyon sis inFOREWORD This METHOD is designed to give the young stu- dent a proper conception and systematic approach to music reading and the art of brass performance. Emphasis is on the fundamentals including tone production, tone placement, embouchure devel- opment, technique, rhythmic perception and tonal consciousness. Through this thorough and efficient course of study the student will be led to take his place as a contributing member of the school band or orchestra in the shortest possible time. The TRUMPET, TROMBONE and BARITONE books may be used in conjunction with one another, thus facilitating the organization of beginning brass classes. The book also contains a refreshing repertoire of new song material that will delight both student and teacher. pe Ke CpaPLAYING POSITIONS STUDY T!
