Book Reviews of Trumpet Technique
Book Review: Valuable tool for teachers and players!
Summary: 5 Stars
Campos' book is an elegantly written, thoroughly researched, and well-organized volume on the pedagogy of the trumpet. He attacks every conceivable issue that trumpet players face including technical, motivational, mental and even physical problems and suggests solutions for all.
This is a wonderful resource for interested players and teachers. Being a university teacher myself, I've made notes throughout the book of interesting techniques to try with my students and in my own playing.
Highly recommended. Thank you, Mr. Campos, for putting together this badly-needed guide to teaching and playing our instrument!
Summary of Trumpet Technique
In the last forty years, many elite performers in the arts have gleaned valuable lessons and techniques from research and advances in sport science, psychomotor research, learning theory, and psychology. Numerous "peak performance" books have made these tools and insights available to athletes.Now, professor and performer Frank Gabriel Campos has translated this concept for trumpet players and other brass and wind instrumentalists, creating an accessible and comprehensive guide to performance skill. Trumpet Technique combines the newest research on skill acquisition and peak performance with the time-honored and proven techniques of master teachers and performers. All aspects of brass technique are discussed in detail, including the breath, embouchure, oral cavity, tongue, jaw, and proper body use, as well as information on performance psychology, practice techniques, musicians' occupational injuries, and much more.
Comprehensive and detailed, Trumpet Technique is an invaluable resource for performers, teachers, and students at all levels seeking to move to the highest level of skill with their instrument.
