The 120 Melodious Etudes For Trombone from the Vocalises of Marco Bordogni selected and transcribed by Joannés Rochut in three books have been used by countless trombonists since their publication almost a century ago in 1928. Their value has been written about by many of the greatest artists on the instrument and their adaptability has inspired arrangers to create duets, trios, quartets and other chamber works to “spread the word” and provide more than one avenue for practice and performance.
Book 1 contains etudes 1-60 which are suitable for intermediate to advanced performers.
This is a pdf download version for tablet! Perfect for practice or performance.
More and more musicians are using their digital screens (mostly tablets) to practice and even perform their music. My main goal in producing a pdf digital edition of the Melodious Etudes is to allow performers to easily access them on their tablets.
Play the etudes in octaves or use the Ritt Melodious Accompaniments or Ervin 20 Counterpart duets with your teacher or a colleague.
Also included is an important introduction and 18 valuable practice tips from Gordon Cherry, learned over a lifetime of practicing, learning and teaching.
