    iWarmup

    Jazz up your practice routine! iWarmUp provides a platform for practicing fundamentals—including long tones, lip slurs, articulation, high range, and low range—accompanied by a jazz rhythm section. These seven routines, one for each day ofthe week, are designed to be played with accompaniment by the iReal Pro app (sold separately), but you can also reap the benefits by simply playing the exercises with a good old-fashioned metronome.

    Beginning students can play the easier exercises at a slower tempo and skip the hard ones, while the most advanced college students and professionals can challenge themselves appropriately with faster tempos on the more difficult excerpts. iWarmUp can also be used in a group setting. No jazz experience is needed in order to use iWarmUp, which provides a change of pace for classical trombonists. "Hard core" jazzers will immediately recognize the method's applicability to their craft.

    Pick and choose from the excerpts that you enjoy and benefit from the most, omitting certain exercises of your choice if you are crunched for time on a given day. Improvise a chorus or two using the pitches in the exercise as a guide. Best of all, createyour own custom iWarmUp chapter for that big solo you've got coming up on the next jazz band concert_and don't forget to have fun!

    Note: For the complete audio accompaniment experience, you will need to purchase the iReal Pro app (sold separately on a different website here - opens a new window).
