Book Reviews of Thirty-two Etudes for Trumpet or Cornet
Book Review: Progressive melodic etudes
Summary: 5 Stars
Sigmund Hering was an Austrian classical trumpeter who migrated to the United States in the 1920's. He played in number of orchestras there and wrote a series of instructional books and etudes.
I bought this book because I had been struggling a bit with some harder etude books (Clarke's Characteristic Studies for the Cornet and Smith's "Top Tones for the Trumpeter"). The Hering studies are much easier to play and are probably about right for my level.
To give you an idea of where I'm at, at the time of writing this review I have been playing trumpet for a bit over three years. Although jazz is my main interest, I really see the benefit of working on classical etudes.
The pieces in this book are musical and fun to play, but are also stuctured to help you work on various aspects of your playing. The range is moderate - everything is below high C. The tunes progress in difficulty both in terms of the key signature, articulation, and the rhythmic difficulty. The earlier pieces are not too difficult, though you will still need to have good control of your breathing to play them properly.
I noticed on the back of the book that the studies correspond to level 4 of Hering's series of trumpet instruction books in case you know them (I don't). Hering has written quite a lot of books of etudes, some easier and some harder than this particular book. If you think you are at roughly the same level as me then I am sure you will enjoy this book. A less experienced player could go for Hering's "Forty Progressive Etudes for Trumpet" and a more advanced player could maybe try Hering's "Twenty-four Advanced Etudes" (you could also try the Clarke or Smith books I mentioned earlier).
Summary of Thirty-two Etudes for Trumpet or Cornet
These studies are offered as the fruit of twenty-years teaching experience, to prepare the embryonic trumpeter for advanced work. The purpose is to provide technical material which shall be sufficiently attractive from the melodic standpoint to maintain the student's interest, and the composer hopes they may contribute in no small degree to his musical and technical progress.Songbooks
