Description
This book and its associated backing tracks has been created with the Bb Trumpet or Cornet player in mind, but is equally suitable for all Bb flat valved instruments. Books for Trombone in Treble Clef and Bass Clef are also available.

Suitable for students from non-grade through to approximately Grade 4/5, and professionally recorded backing tracks (with and without the solo line) help to provide extra encouragement and guidance during practice sessions.
To aid the teacher’s selection, each piece indicates the range of notes required to perform the piece, enabling a structured learning experience as the player becomes more confident with new notes.
Should the student wish to perform any of the pieces publicly, a printed piano accompaniment is also available which can be purchased separately.
This collection of tunes helps to supplement accessible repertoire for the learning brass player. It’s not another tutor book, it’s not trying to replace the brass teacher … it’s simply Just Tunes. Fun and varied styles of music written with specifically to challenge the learner player and offer them a wider choice of music to enjoy.
