A progressive trumpet method built around exercises

Arban’s method organizes trumpet study from foundational exercises through advanced compositions, with hundreds of exercises forming the book’s core. Its instruction addresses articulation, tonguing, slurs, tone, and range, giving the collection a practical emphasis on technique across several aspects of playing. The contents also include Arban’s arrangement of “The Carnival in Venice.” Although titled for trumpet, the description identifies the method as relevant to French horn and cornet players as well.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Trumpet students seeking structured exercises from basic through advanced material
  • Players working on articulation, tonguing, slurs, tone, or range
  • French horn and cornet players interested in a method the description also identifies for their instruments

Hailed the Trumpet Bible for over 150 years, this complete pedagogical method contains hundreds of exercises for brass instruments, beginning with basics and progressing to advanced compositions, including the author's famous arrangement of "The Carnival in Venice."

Sharing the knowledge he acquired from many years of experience as a performer and teacher, Arban discusses every aspect of playing with emphasis on articulation, tonguing, slurs, tone, and range. He offers an appreciation of all the instrument's inherent difficulties as well as instructive points that touch upon all possible musical questions.

Whether you are a beginner or an old master, this is an essential asset to trumpet, French horn, and cornet players.
