Many of my colleagues, and indeed trumpeters the world over, swear by the practice routines of James Stamp. Canon Mf 4400 Series Manual : Free Programs more. I hear lots of players warming up to these exercises and repeating them all through the day. Personally, I don’t like to get tied to any particular list of exercises, the reasons have been stated many times in other posts on this blog. I bought the Editions BIM Stamp book when I was at school at fifteen years old. I tried it for a while but didn’t stick with it. I revisited it at college for a few months and several times over the years for extended periods.
I also bought Roy Poper’s excellent book explaining the studies more fully. Some trumpeter colleagues of mine went over to Loa Angeles to study with the widely respected pedagog Boyde Hood, himself a student of Stamp. Boyde’s routine is said to be written with Stamp at the end of James Stamp’s life and are considered by many to be Stamp’s definitive routine. I copied the routine for myself, including the extensive mouthpiece routines. I haven’t included the mouthpiece studies here, but would willingly post them if requested. This time, I stuck with the routine for ages. I gave up on the mouthpiece routines first.
I realised that for me, and I do a little mouthpiece playing at the onset of my playing day (and a little throughout the day’s work), I would rather play mouthpiece studies of a more musical nature. I do a little mouthpiece ‘solfeg’ out of the Kodaly book or I may play some hymns or anything really. This works better for me. The full Stamp routine, pictured in full at the end of this post, simply took me too long and even after a year or two my chops were quite stiff, sore and my mouthpiece never felt good on my chops etc. Things really improved when I gave up the routine altogether. I also began to be ‘addicted’ to the routine and would struggle to play unless I had laboriously gone through all the pages! For me, the full routine has too many pedal tones, covers too much range unnecessarily in each exercise, and the studies aren’t especially musical.
So I stopped! From time to time I do a much shortened version just to get my chops going – I do this as a change so that I don’t do the same exercises every day and get stuck in a rut. I only go down to low F sharp and as high as top C. No pedal tones! Then I get straight to the music; maybe a solo piece, then I work on what I have to learn for work.
I am fully aware of the many top players whop do the full routine every day. It just doesn’t work for me. Here is my short version followed by Boyde Hood’s full routine. Program Stock Barang Php Scripts.
Posted by on Your vacation is supposed to be fun, relaxing, and a joyful occasion. However, let’s say you are headed off on a plane to some exotic island and you are unable to bring your trumpet either because of bag limitations, you don’t have a flight case, you are staying with friends or relatives that definitely don’t want to hear your range study, or you’ll be in a hotel or condo and playing isn’t an option. But, you have a heavy performance scheduled upon your return. [spacer height=”20px”] Trumpets are fragile and bulky.
They don’t fit under the seat on a plane and you are always worried someone will crush it with their luggage or try to move it and drop it. Most of the time you will be so busy sight seeing you will have little time to practice anyway. Here are a couple of tips to help avoid the anxiety and to keep your chops in shape at the same time. You can do a number of things to give your chops a workout including; lip buzzing, mouthpiece buzzing, and lead pipe buzzing.
