Anderson
 Complete Method for Alto Trombone, v.1
  The Anderson Method is one of the better methods for alto on the market in that it actually gives written instruction and advice on how to approach the horn. Many other books merely present the player with a series of exercises and etudes in the alto clef. The Anderson helps the tenor player develop strategies and techniques for switching to alto so that they actually learn to play the horn rather than learn a few rote tunes. -cdp

 Characteristic Studies (14)
  Excerpted from Carl Fischer edition of the complete Arbans Method (01263), these are the same as the items appearing on pages 203 through 224. The Characteristic Studies themselves are highly technical etudes of moderate length. They dwell on rudimentarytechnical features such as scales, intervals, chords and chromatics. Keys are conservative, mostly staying close to C on the flat side of the wheel, with an occassional reach out to Db or Gb. The Studies are presented in a way so that the player can better tie together nuts and bolts technical playing with the art of making music. --cdp

 Complete Method for Trombone & Euphonium (Alessi & Bowman)
  In this new edition, the comments of Messrs. Alessi and Bowman are presented unencumbered by pre-existing editorial material. Both bring impeccable credentials to the task, and their comments provide wonderful insights into their individual approaches tomusical and technical matters. In addition to these comments, there are other improvements: the format is clean and readable; all of the well-known misprints and typographical errors of the original edition seem to have been corrected; and suggestions for alternate positions/fingerings have been left out completely. Included are some materials which previously were available only in the trumpet book. These include the Duets, The Art of Phrasing, and additional theme and variation pieces at the back ofthe book. The book itself is spiral-bound so as to lay flat on the music stand.

 First & Second Year (Prescott)
  This book was originally written in the 1930's with the intention of being used with the (then) popular Prescott Technique system. The Prescott system is largely forgotten these days, however this book lives on as a useful collection of essential Arbans etudes. It is essentially a collection of excerpts from the complete trombone version of the Arbans Famous Method (our number 01263), amounting to 79 pages. Appropriate for all players, from intermediate on up for the development of solid technique.

 My First Arban, for the Developing Student (Foster)
  An introduction to the essential elements of the famous Arban method presented in a logical manner and in a format for developing students to use. The Arban techniques of brass playing adapt very well to the study of trumpet, trombone, baritone b.c., horn and tuba. This book will improve the technical facility and musicianship of the young brass player the way the Arban method has for a century. It will serve as a fantastic preparation for the Arban techniques and help the developing student make the transition into the standard pedagogical brass literature. My First Arban is designed to work both in an individual and a group setting and is an invaluable tool to take young brass players to the next level of playing. --the publisher

Bitsch
 Rhythmical Studies (15) (Masson)
  Perhaps one of the most popular etude books for trombone. The Bitsch etudes are famous for their ability to help players gain a mastery of complex and/or unexpected rhythms. Used in just about every college level program, each etude is a character piece,focusing on a set of rhythmic issues. These include mixed meter, displaced emphasis, beams over barlines, downbeat rests, tuplets, syncopation, "blurring" of the beat and/or meter/barline, ties into strong beats, dotted eighth-16th vs. triplets, etc. Uses both tenor and bass clef liberally, including many mid-measure clef changes. 16 pages. -cdp

Blazhevich
 School for Trombone in Clefs & Alto Studies (Kharlamov/Deryugin/Stare)
  The School for Trombone in Clefs (the "Clef Studies") first appeared in 1925. A later edition appeared in 1939, which represented the full maturation of the composer's ideas. Today's new original authentic edition is based on that final 1939 Russian publication. It corrects errors and omissions found in previous American editions which had been based on the 1925 version. It also removes all non authentic editorial content such as dynamics, articulations and tempo indications that had been added along the way. The original Forward by Blazhevich has been restored, with some additional advice provided by the editors (clearly marked as such) to bring the language into the 21st century. Thus, in this edition, the music and text are returned totheir authentic state, exactly as Blazhevich intended. As an added feature, each section of the book and many of the individual studies have been annotatated by Ward Stare, principal trombonist of the Lyric Opera of Chicago. These are clearly indicated and are intended to act as performance advice, rather than definite instruction.

Alto Studies: Also included as a bonus in this new edition are the Alto Studies, previously unpublished and available here for the first time. Covering 50 pages, these 41 fully developed studies help the trombonist not only gain basic ability in alto clef, but also go beyond basic technical proficiency to full mastery. Appropriate for use on alto or tenor trombone.

NOTE: The School for Trombone in Clefs is the official replacement for the various "Clef Studies" books previously published by International Music and Leeds/MCA Music/Hal Leonard, edited by Allen Ostrander and Donald Hunsberger respectively. This volume does not contain the Sequences—see item 70000 for these.

Blazhevich
 Sequences (26) [advanced] (Mulcahy, et al)
  First published in 1925, this newly engraved 2008 volume is a faithful rendering of the original work, with no additional editorial marks with the exception of error corrections (these are clearly indicated in grayscale). Annotated by Chicago Symphony Orchestra trombonist Michael Mulcahy, this volume is highly useful for the study of rhythmic accuracy, articulation, clefs and of course, musicality. Edition by Andrey Kharlamov, Michael Deryugin and Michael Mulcahy. 55 pages.
"The repetitive nature of these studies offers a particularly valuable opportunity for the fortification of the accuracy that is required at orchestral auditions. Although six of these sequences are lyrical in nature, the emphasis is very much on articulation, passagework and agility. To that extent, Blazhevich's focus in these studies is considerably more systematically technical than his more famous School in Clefs. Rhythm is the likely culprit for the most common carelessness on our instrument. Perhaps our repertoire features less rhythmic intricacy than the repertoire of the violin or piano, but that is no excuse for a lack of accuracy. When Blazhevich began the composition of these 26 Sequences for Trombone, he had been solo trombonist of the Bolshoi for 14 years. I theorize that these etudes are his specific response to the consistency required of the professional trombonist and an excellent preparation for the successful realization of an orchestral audition. --Michael Mulcahy.
NOTE: This 26 Sequences is the official replacement for the various "Sequences" books and variants previously published by International Music, Accura and others.

 Rhythmical Articulation, Parts 2 & 3 (Fitch) [bass clef]
  Appropriate for any bass clef instrument, including bassoon, trombone, euphonium, tuba, cello or double bass. The original "Complete Method for Rhythmical Articulation" was intended for vocal use to teach problems of sight reading, rhythmical and intervallic accuracy, and "articulation" in the sense of correct pronunciation of solfeggio syllables. This bass clef edition retains the qualities of the original, but "articulation" now means accuracy of tonguing on wind instruments and of correct bowing on the strings. In addition, phrase marks and slurs have been added where they are appropriate, and keys have been changed in some of the studies in order that the range of the study remains useful for bass clef instruments. 42 etudes over 47 pages, bass clef throughout. Omitted from the original vocal edition is "Part I," which dealt mainly with solfeggio syllables over a series of 74 short scaler etudes.
