' call me a T.U.B.A. Journal scholastic wannabe, but here goes:
Giuseppe Concone - "The Complete Solfeggi", ed. & trans. for trumpet by Dr. John Kovak (Southern Illinois University), Balquhidder Music BQ-051 (through Carl Fischer, NY) 144 pgs. $19.95
included:
Thirty Daily Exercises - Op. 11
Fifty Lessons - Op. 9
Twenty-five Lessons - Op. 10
Fifteen Vocalises - Op. 12
Forty Lessons - Op. 17
(total 160 etudes, arranged progressively by the editor)
Also included are a preface, a glossary of terms, and an index of exercises by key signatures.
ŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽ
These are "bel canto" etudes that can be used to suppliment the "Bordogni 43 [tuba]" and/or "Bordogni/Rochut [trombone] 120", and to move the advancing and motivated tuba student into the mainstream of treble clef literacy.
