Starter Solos for Trumpet Bk/ola

Philip Sparke's Starter Solos is the first volume of a progressive series of books that take the young wind player from beginner to accomplished musician. Specifically tailored for each instrument this collection of 20 solos starts with pieces based on only a handful of notes and carefully introduces new musical elements such as articulation dynamics and key signatures in a structured progression to speed the learning process. The books provide invaluable additional material to complement any teaching method.
Starter Solos comes with an online audio access. The advantages of playing either with piano or audio accompaniment are that the beginning player can now experience the important aspects of ensemble playing from their earliest lessons, thus developing the essential skills of listening while they play and maintaining strict tempo, which is not always a factor when playing alone.
