Guillaume
Balay (1871-1943) served
in the French military as
a prolific cornet player,
having won first place in
the 1894 Cornet Award
competition at the
National Academy of Music
in Paris. His
compositions and studies
were popular in the
cornet and brass
repertoire at the time,
including his Fifteen
Studies for Cornet. This
Balay work remains within
the cornet study
repertoire to this day
and is suitable to
advance level players.
The Fifteen Studies
address features,
including accidentals,
breath control,
intervals, range,
ornamentation,
chromaticism, complex
rhythms, dynamics,
performance directions,
and variations in time
and key signatures, among
other aspects. These
quirky studies provide
the advanced cornet
player with exciting
exercises to ensure
progress to a high level
of technique.
