Beyond the Warm up

Following on from Bob Ashworth's brilliant 'Horn Warm-Ups' (E635) this A5 booklet offers more demanding challenges for horn players: exploring a wider range, pushing some technical demands and offering ways to practise 'difficult' bits. Some of the exercises have an obvious reference to standard orchestral excerpts on which to apply the same concepts - some excerpts are given briefly as examples. The exercises are designed to promote (and maintain) richness of sound, flexibility, accuracy, stamina, creativity, musicality, intonation, consistency and general awareness.
