Book synopsis

Great Players. How do they do it! Great Playing. How is it done! Have I got the Talent? This book offers a comprehensive guide to the techniques used by great brass players. Consider this! Sports scientists can find no physical differences between athletes of Olympic standard and moderate athletes. The only difference that can be identified in any way, shape or form, is that the great athletes think about their event all the time, mentally rehearsing every element, time and time again. And so it is with playing. With former students in almost all of the major British orchestras and many in Europe and Asia, HOWARD SNELL, a former principal trumpet of the London Symphony Orchestra and former professor at the Royal Academy of Music in London, has developed an approach to playing which makes the most of any player's individual talent. So successfully direct are his techniques, absolutely clearly explained in this book, that they are applicable to all brass instruments. In fact, the principles he outlines are common to all musical performance.
