Free Sample Pages From… Brad Edwards Free sample pages from… The Intermediate Trombonist Building Blocks for Tone and Technique © 2018, Brad Edwards, All rights reserved Free sample pages - The Intermediate Trombonist Foreword My students and I love beginning a new lesson book. It’s a adventure similar to beginning a new school year. Starting The Intermediate Trombonist means that you’re in a very special place in your trombone playing. No longer a beginner, you are ready to make a big jump forward in your skills and musical understanding. You’ll love getting better! There’s a lot about The Intermediate Trombonist that teachers will love, also. This book — like all of Brad Edwards’ books — is well organized and logical. New information is presented in an appropriate order with excellent instructions. Lesson plans will help you know exactly how to organize the exercises throughout the book into 40 progressive lessons. Many older intermediate books — written before any of us were born — contain instructions that are outdated. Fortunately, not so with Dr. Edwards’ book. Also, unlike many older methods, The Intermediate Trombonist includes exercises that are tuneful and interesting. The Intermediate Trombonist — along with an excellent instructor, a metronome, a tuner, and a way to record yourself — will be a perfect way to move your trombone playing forward to an exciting new level. Joe Dixon San Antonio, Texas Joe Dixon is a nationally recognized trombone clinician and a recipient of the 2018 Foundation Award from The Foundation for Music Education. Acknowledgements I would like to thank the people who generously gave of their time and expertise to provide input on early versions of this book. Although I have a few younger students, I wanted to have some ‘extra pairs of eyes’ from other teachers to make sure I wasn’t going off course. To that end, my heartfelt thanks go to Sean Reusch, Brian Conklin, Rebecca Ford, Linda Landis and Joe Dixon for their suggestions. Thank you also to Julia Broome-Robinson for her proof-reading efforts and thoughtful input. Great credit goes to my wife, Martha. In fact, this book was her idea! She is so patient being a ‘book widow’ during these time-consuming obsessions; for this I am truly grateful. The photo credit goes to my daughter, Amelia. The sunset picture was taken in the summer of 2016 along the Oregon coastline; a beautiful day! Free sample pages - The Intermediate Trombonist About This Book The Intermediate Trombonist is designed to fill a void that exists between beginning books and more advanced materials. Duet parts for 100 of these etudes are available separately from TromboneZone.org. Daily 6-Minute Warm-Up Mouthpiece buzzing, tone and positions, lip slurs, rhythmic articulation. Part One: Lip Slurs (20 exercises) Lip slurs are essential to embouchure development as well as overall technique. This sequence helps students progress smoothly from easy slurs to more advanced material. Part Two: Pattern-Building (40 exercises) This section explains such fundamentals of music theory as half steps and whole steps in addition to providing scale practice. Many exercises present the same patterns in both familiar and foreign keys. Part Three: Lyrical Legato (40 etudes, duet parts available) These little etudes help students develop a smooth, singing style. Extra exercises go into detail concerning the use of the legato tongue and natural slurs. Part Four: Varied Articulation (40 etudes, duet parts available) These provide practice with some subtleties of articulation including accent, staccato, tenuto, and mixing in legato tonguing as well as natural slurs. Part Five: Simple Tunes in Multiple Keys (20 tunes, duet parts available) These enjoyable little melodies presented in different keys help students develop ‘key sense’: that ability to think beyond slide positions to an understanding of how to transpose interval content into a foreign key. Appendices #1: The Overtone Series and Intonation #2: Developing the High Range #3: Introducing the Tenor Clef #4: Working with the F-attachment #5: More About Tuning #6: 22 Tips to Get Better #7: 10 Practice Tricks that Work This book cannot replace a private instructor.

  • “Edward Hahnenberg Brings the Best Insights from His Recent Works on Ministry and Vocation Into a Resource That Is Accessible and Delightful to Read
    “Edward Hahnenberg brings the best insights from his recent works on ministry and vocation into a resource that is accessible and delightful to read. Weaving personal stories, references to pop culture, classical questions, history, and a good introduction to Catholic theology, this work is an invitation to think about ministry in light of the core convictions of our faith. No better place to ground the discernment of the vocation to Christian service than in the contemplation of the mysteries of the Triune God, Jesus, the Spirit, and the Church! Theology for Ministry is an excellent guide for such discernment.” — Hosffman Ospino Boston College School of Theology and Ministry “This volume is the fruit of a gifted theologian’s deep reflection on the lived life of the Church, in particular, lay ministry, in light of our theological tradition. The preposition for in the title is central: this work is at the service of lay ministers, inviting deep reflection on ‘their own’ experience, and the theology which grounds it more deeply. Discussion questions encourage a pondering of experience, as well as the themes of vocation, God, Jesus Christ, the Spirit, the Church and ministry, each presented with great lucidity. Many sources inform Hahnenberg’s work, including varied ecclesial documents, spiritual writers, theologians old and new, contemporary artists, but most especially stories of lay ministers (and his own stories) of the wellsprings of their faith and commitment to service. This is a rich resource for spiritual growth, and for a deepening of identity as lay ministers.” — Zeni Fox Professor of Pastoral Theology Seton Hall University “In chapter 4, Hahnenberg says he has the gift of explaining things— to which I say ‘Amen!’ This book simply explains why we do what we do.

Other themes: the growth of independent record labels and studios in the Bay Area; the power of local radio DJs and AM radio stations. II. The Birth of Underground San Francisco Rock A.
