  • Good starting point.
Format: Paperback
The title is definitely true. I am a total beginner. I have never played trumpet but I always wanted to. My kids are in their school band starting out and I thought it would be fun to learn a instrument and play along with them practicing at home. Although I didn’t finish all of the lessons in 14 days, because of time constraints. I did finish all the courses in less than a month. But I could definitely see someone finishing this course in 14 days or even faster. This book is absolutely worth it! ... show more

  • There is a good section, with photos, on maintenance
Format: Paperback
This book contains a lot of good information on how to learn trumpet and the most important thing is practice. There is a great section on how to maintain your trumpet and a lot of good fingering information. The book suggests that you practice one hour a day which is good advice but perhaps, for beginners, the one hour should be distributed throughout the day otherwise your lips might get sore. I really recommend the book. ... show more

  • Smple
Format: Paperback
I used to play a trumpet and quit when I went into the army in 1965. I haven't played since then but wanted to get back into it so I bought the book. It is good for someone that never played before, but you will need to keep up with it as noted in the book because a beginner needs to develop your lip mussels which will get soft if you don't continue. ... show more

  • Great first book
Format: Paperback
I am going back to playing trumpet after a 50 year hiatus, using a Yamaha EZ-TP MIDI’d to a collection of synths. The lessons got me back up to speed in a month, ready to move to more advanced lessons to play mostly jazz.

  • Breaks it down; makes it simple
Format: Kindle
I know I have a long way to go, but this book helped me get familiar with the trumpet fast as an adult learner.

  • horrible exercises
Format: Paperback
The exercises in this book feel like an author trying to be original and make a quick buck instead of giving good exercises to work with regularly. This is my 6th instrument so I am familiar with beginner books and buying this one was a mistake. I wound up buying one that is popular with school band teachers and the difference is night and day. If I saw this in a store and flipped through it myself I could have quickly seen how unprofessional this book is. This is not a book a teacher or real musician would ever give to their students. ... show more
