NuBrass Horns - Suite #1
$60 Hard Copy $50 PDF
NuBrass Horns
Customised for a group of established trumpeters who are encouraged to transfer from Trumpet to Baritone Treble Clef, Eb Tuba Treble Clef, Bb Tuba Treble Clef, Eb Tenor Horn and French Horn in F.
This idea comes from the Brass Band tradition where every instrument reads Treble clef and the same trumpet fingerings are used for all instruments high Cornet down to low Tuba.
This is an effective way to expand your Concert Band instrumentation if there are many trumpets!
Most kids enjoy the challenge also!!!!
