A diploma candidate's guide to exam success: Trumpet DipABRSM.Foreword Quick Studies can be the bête noir of DipABRSM examination candidates. This need not be the case but confidence in this area will not come overnight.

You'll need to think more analytically not just instinctively. This new series of books targets the Quick Study head-on: all freshly composed pieces with the exam kept firmly in mind. It is not a solution in itself nor a means of short-circuiting the skills you will need to develop but a practice tool to steer you in the right direction. The
