Arban – Method For Trombone B.C Book/Ola (New Edition)

Arban – Method For Trombone B.C Book and Online Audio (New Edition)

Jean Baptiste Arban’s fundamental method book for trumpet, originally published in 1864, has remained a cornerstone in trumpet studies for over a century. In 1936, two renowned trombonists of their time, Charles Randall and Simone Mantia, adapted and expanded the method for trombone, laying the foundation for trombone studies for the next 75 years.

Today, Alan Raph takes the Arban method into the 21st century, enriching and enlarging the complete Arban text while incorporating contemporary skills and techniques developed up to the present day. Several sections, such as scales and arpeggios, have been expanded, and new sections, like slide drills and modern forms of double and triple tonguing, have been introduced. The inclusion of alternate positions has been updated and extended, even providing F-attachment positions to facilitate smoother slide movements.

Raph’s outstanding edition goes further by offering an online audio resource with Mp3 accompaniments to the 12 Celebrated Fantasies and Airs Varis, performed by John Walker, making it a comprehensive instructional package for trombone students. This edition spans 360 pages and carries on the legacy of Jean Baptiste Arban’s invaluable contribution to brass instrument education.
