This column will address issues that are important to young trumpet players in middle school and high school. Each master class will address a specific topic and may include music examples to download and practice. You may want to show these to your band director so that they may use them with the entire trumpet section of band. New columns will appear periodically, so you will want to bookmark this page, and check back often! If you have any ideas about topics you would like to see in future masterclasses or general suggestions, please email the editor at: masterclass@trumpetguild.org
