Looking For Beginners Trumpet Book
Good Afternoon,
I received a trumpet last Christmas from my mother and father as it was my first love of an instrument that I never played.
I'm desperate to get going with it but have no experience with brass instruments and do not know anyone in the area who does.
As a guitarist I know that some books aren't worth the time, because they don't cover technique etc.
So I was reaching out for anyone on here who is an experienced trumpet player who can recommend a real good starters trumpet book.
I think experience and expertise is under estimated in this "Let me Google it for you" generation, so this is my attempt to connect with someone :)
(I love Louis Armstrong, Chet Baker and Hugh Masekela)

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.While you're waiting for someone who actually plays the trumpet, I'll direct you to this book on Amazon. It comes with a DVD to explain techniques and a CD so that you can hear what you're seeking to achieve. It's got outstanding reviews on both Amazon UK and Amazon USA (posted by everyone from kids and their parents to an 80-year-old!). Possibly worth a look?
