Courting the Upper Register
"Courting the Upper Register" provides practice material for trumpet players wishing to extend their range without the tedium of scales and arpeggios. You'll actually play melodies written to develop your skills in the upper register. Each melody is presented in a simple key in the staff. It is then presented again in several ascending keys, so not only do your chops get a workout, but you become more familiar with some less common key areas. The melodies themselves are original themes constructed on the patterns of some of the most well-known themes of famous concertos and orchestral excerpts. You'll "hear" those original themes, but will also be able to tell the differences.
