15 Selections From Arbans

Description

Trumpet in Bb — Using popular arias from the 19th Century opera repertoire, Jean Baptiste Arban, author of the definitive trumpet method, fashioned a large number of solos to explore the variety of phrasings possible on the trumpet and cornet. The fifteen solos chosen by Dr. Bovinette, give the player the opportunity to make the instrument sing, developing breathing technique, legato phrasing ability and other elements of musical playing in the process. Music by Verdi, Donizetti, Bellini and Rossini is included and players will enjoy the opportunity to play these glorious tunes.
