Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What level trumpet player is this for?
You need to read notation and have control across a working range. Film themes carry long phrases and sustained notes, so breath support matters more than speed.
02Can I play these with a piano accompanist?
The book contains trumpet parts. A pianist would need separate accompaniment music, since the trumpet part is transposed.
03What is on the CD?
Recorded audio to accompany the printed arrangements, so you can practice the melody over backing rather than alone.
04Will this work on cornet or flugelhorn?
Both share the trumpet's B-flat transposition and fingerings, so the parts read the same on either.
