The amount, of course, will be substantially more than you're asking, but they'll trust you to send them a ceritified check for the difference. Only later, when you try to deposit their "Ceritified Check," will you learn that it's counterfeit.

I apologize, Paul! (Duh!) For the longest time (mumble, mumble), I used the books of the late Reginald H. Fink, a Remington student who was longtime professor of trombone at Ohio University. Most are published by Accura Music. My favs: --Introducing Legato --Introducing the F-Attachment --Advanced Musical Etudes: 112 rhythmic and melodic studies in bass clef, based upon Blazhevich's *School in Clefs for Trombone* https://www.accuramusic.com/collections/trombone-methods You'll notice on that Accura page that there is an *Advanced Rhythm and Technique Etudes* in bass clef, based upon the Blazhevich *Sequences*. I've never looked at this, but I'd think that these would be too hard for a tenth grader, even simplified without the C clefs. Also note on the Accura page that there is a new edition of Donald Hunsberger's *The Remington Warm-up Studies*. Of course, you might just teach these by rote, as Irvin Wagner does. There is also a Reginald Fink collection of vocalises by Concone, Marchesi, and Panofka called *Studies in Legato*, published by Carl Fischer. These are more advanced than the *Introducing Legato* mentioned above. I know that many teachers dive right into Bordogni vocalises--what we used to call *the Rochut book*--but I like to start with easier things: --Giuseppe Concone, *40 Legato Studies*, Concone's opus 17, edited by Donald Miller, published by Ensemble Publications. http://www.enspub.com/pages/00/00540.htm Piano accompaniment is available in various editions at IMSLP: https://s9.imslp.org/files/imglnks/usimg/f/fe/IMSLP336101-SIBLEY1802.22865.03f4-39087009887029score.pdf --Heinrich Panofka, *24 Progressive Vocalises*. Encore Music Publishers (Wesley Jacobs, retired tubist of the Detroit Symphony) had these for trombone, for trumpet (euphonium T.C.), and for tuba, as well as the piano accompaniment. They all seem to have gone out of print recently, but perhaps a retailer might still have it on the shelves. Freebie piano accompaniment from IMSLP, if you'd like to see if it's worth tracking down: https://s9.imslp.org/files/imglnks/usimg/8/88/IMSLP321839-SIBLEY1802.22746.d4bf-39087009893944score.pdf --*Bel Canto for Trombone*, edited by Robert Beringen, published by De Haske, available in the U.S. from Hal Leonard dealers. About a dozen easier vocalises by Tosti, by Marchesi, by Concone. The set includes the piano book, the trombone booklet, and a CD with model tracks performed by Ian Bousfield, and other tracks with piano only: https://www.musicshopeurope.com/bel-canto-for-trombone-dhp%201084522--400?returnurl=%2fsearch%3fq%3dbel%2bcanto%2btrombone%26substoreid%3d Interestingly, there is a euphonium version of this, the same vocalises (by Tosti, by Marchesi, by Concone) that are set a third or so lower than the trombone version, something that I sometimes find useful for a student. The solo euphonium book is set in B-flat treble clef in the first half of the book, and the same etudes printed in bass clef in the back of the book. Steven Mead is the soloist on the CD model tracks: https://www.musicshopeurope.com/steven-mead-presents-bel-canto-for-euphonium-dhp%201064158--400 The piano accompaniment is available as a separate book: https://www.musicshopeurope.com/steven-mead-presents-bel-canto-for-euphonium-dhp%201064164--401?returnurl=%2fsearch%3fq%3dbel%2bcanto%2beuphonium%2bpiano%2baccompaniment%26substoreid%3d The Blazhevich of our time is Brad Edwards, professor of trombone at Arizona State University. My guys have not gotten very far in *The Intermediate Trombonist*, but maybe they are a bit too young for it? Anyway, take a look at the sample pages and decide for yourself: https://www.trombonezone.org/books/ One admirable extra with Brad's work is that he usually has different versions for tenor and for bass trombone. My favorite of Brad's books, the one I'd take to a desert island, the one that I use with my older students, is still *Simply Singing*. See it, sing it, buzz it, play it. Very nice English and Irish folk tunes in contrasting keys and styles, with nicely-done duets throughout. I hope others can chime in, as I'm always on the search for new things for the kids. --George Butler, Lasnam?e Muusikakool, a children's music school in Tallinn, Estonia https://www.muusika.tln.edu.ee/est/opetajad/?opetaja=george-butler On Fri, Jul 8, 2022 at 7:08 PM Paul Johnston via Trombone-l < trombone-l at trombonelist.org> wrote: > I had mine taken out in college on Christmas break also in the mumbles, > mumbles.

I use those books too. Reg Fink wrote some really good stuff. I don?t think he ever got his book on basic rhythmic patterns written. He passed three years after I met and hung out with him at ITF ?93. He told me it was to be his next book because the students he was getting at OU couldn?t play basic rhythmic patterns. Two of my students went to OU later, after he passed. I?ve worked with all my students on rhythm. It sure helps with sightreading.
