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.
This is the complete collection of all three books containing etudes 1-120 and are suitable for advanced intermediate (some of Book 1) to advanced performers.
This is a pdf download version which can be downloaded right onto your 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 with your teacher or a colleague or use them with the Ritt Melodious Accompaniments and the Ervin 20 Counterparts as duets.
Also included is an important introduction and 18 valuable practice tips from Gordon Cherry, learned over a lifetime of practicing, learning and teaching.
