Tuba Daily Routines Book

By George Palton

Written to guide the player through the basics to the more advanced techniques on the Tuba, this book is divided into a series of 14 exercises that include: LONG TONES - Transpose the variations to fit your needs. TONE DEVELOPMENT- The Bruckner exercise begins in C and can be transposed into whatever key fits the musician's needs. Exercises C-E should be played as written. Exercises F-N is a series of patterns that can be transposed if needed. In general the focus is the development of good tone, and use of air. THREE NOTE LIP-SLURS- Play these slowly and focus on proper slurring. The variations are patterns to be transposed to the instrument's key. FLEXIBILITY LIP-SLURS- These are patterns that should be transposed using the series of fingerings established in the three note lip-slur section. LOW/HIGH RANGE EXERCISES- Use excerpts, etudes, and literature to supplement this exercise. TONGUING/TECHNIQUE- Use exercises from the Arban Complete Method for the Tuba and Clarke Technical Studies for the Cornet to supplement these patterns. To multi-task use scales to focus on these areas. Plus many more.
