Sound Habits Brass Builder

A series of rock and jazz play-along exercises to develop the tone quality, listening skills, and embouchure of the beginning brass player.

Featuring the recording talents of James Thompson of the Eastman School of Music on trumpet and members of The Presidio Brass on French Horn, Trombone and Tuba

Daily Play-Along Brass Builder was the original name of the trumpet version of this book. In the 2012 edition we updated the name to be part of our Sound Habits ® series. Teachers are now able to use the same fun play-along tracks found in the original trumpet book in a mixed brass setting.

REVIEWS

An outstanding text for beginning trumpeters… The recorded examples on the CD are fresh and well composed.… Sound Habits: Brass Builder for Trumpet delivers an enjoyable and fun learning experience for students while developing foundational skills and habits.

Brass Builder is a kid-proven hit and an invaluable adjunct to the student's regular method book. Rob Sayer has developed an appealing and well-founded utility destined to engage and improve the brass players of tomorrow. Highly recommended!!

I use the Brass Builder with my 5th grade brass students. They really enjoy playing the rock and jazz tunes, and are thrilled to be able to play “cool music” on the first day of class. The Brass Builder will improve intonation, listening skills, and endurance. A great book and CD that I recommend to every band director and private teacher. You can't miss!!!
