<p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>This is Vol. l of the Thompson Flexibility Studies for trumpet players. It is designed</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>for beginning trumpet players. It is also designed for players returning to the horn</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>after a very long time of not playing or practicing. If you are an intermediate or</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>advanced trumpet player this volume will likely only be part of a good daily warm up</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>for you. Why? If you are not a beginner or comeback player it will be too easy.</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>So if you ARE a beginner or comeback player you are in the right place!</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>On the other hand what if you are in 8th grade starting your 2nd or 3rd year of</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>playing trumpet? What if you are a comeback player but you actually restarted the</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>trumpet a year ago or 2 years ago? Well you may find this book easy. Perhaps you</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>may find it too easy.</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>If you truly are an intermediate trumpet player or advanced or if you are a comeback</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>player who really isn't a comeback player anymore i.e. you have already been</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>practicing everyday for the last year or more this book at most will serve as a good</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>part of your daily warm up. You should seriously consider starting Vol. II of the</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Thompson Flexibility Studies.</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>I want the right player to be using this book and having a good time doing so. I made</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>this book such that a beginner doesn't even need to know all their fingerings or the</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>name of the notes. All they have to do is understand the valve numbering system to</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>play through most of these exercises. Having a basic understanding of note and rest</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>values is also a requirement. (i.e. quarter note whole rest and etc...)</span></p>
