Mick Hesse has written a warmup routine in three chapters using his 50+ year career as a performing artist and teacher to help mature performers get and stay in shape throughout the course of a season. In his own words: These 3 Stages of practice are designed to help you get started and keep you practicing in a fundamentally sound way. The exercises start with a five minute time limit and move seamlessly to six and seven minutes of playing. Once memorized these sequences will allow you to pick up your horn and be ready to play a rehearsal with a properly warmed up embouchure in five minutes. If your schedule allows 11 or 18 minutes you can be assured that you are not only warmed up but also maintaining a properly functioning embouchure that you can build on as much as time, energy and motivation allows. Rest as needed during this practice session.

Bach's Unaccompanied Suites beautifully and meticulously edited for Trumpet by Ralph Sauer, are now available for the first time in pdf format on a CD-ROM disk ready to print out as needed. Mr. Sauer's thoughtful version of the Six Suites gives the performer room to breathe musically. To quote Mr. Sauer and Pablo Casals,I refrained from using fanciful descriptive terms such as con brio, or quasi una fantasia because they may suggest a particular style...This transcription is not intended to be a blueprint to be followed exactly, but rather, it is the raw material from which a personal interpretation can be built.To quote Pablo Casals, Where interpreting Bach's music is concerned, there are no hard and fast rules...The best thing to do is to discard all preconceived ideas and try to approach in our performances whatever the music conveys to us....

Reinhold Gliere's Concerto for Coloratura Soprano and Orchestra, Op. 82 was written in 1942-1943 and shows off the composer's gentle melodic musical style reminiscent of Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov and even Wagner. The choice of a vocal soloist singing without words was not new at that time, as Rachmaninov's beautiful Vocalise had already been composed. But....adding a full orchestra to the mix was a gamble that paid off, as this is one of Gliere's finest works. The Concerto consists of two movements -- Andante and Allegro and is about 14 minutes in length. The 1st movement's rich melodies are full of lush harmonic textures and the work drives from climax to climax. The finale Allegro is lighthearted and bounces along merrily to the end. Gordon Cherry's arrangement for Alto Trombone with Piano accompaniment reduction brings a major new work to the Alto Trombone repertoire. This work can also be performed on the Tenor Trombone, however, the style of the work makes it perfect for the Alto Trombone. Appropriate for advanced performers. (Under license from G. Schirmer Music).
