Edizioni Volonte' & Co.
Essential elements for playing in big band and jazz ensemble
Autori: Franco Piana / Fernando Brusco
Language : English, Italian

This method book intends to introduce young players to playing in a big band trumpet section. We will consider, in gradual progression, the more important rhythmic figures and then take a look at how to approach the questions of pronunciation, interpretation and blending in with the section. 
The musical styles presented go from swing to Latin to funky and bossa nova.

There are 4 tracks on the CD for each duet. The first track is for a complete listening of the whole piece. The second track is without the first trumpet part and the third is without the second trumpet part. The final track has no trumpet parts and is to be played together with the teacher or a friend.
