| Vacchiano book When I was in NYC I found one of the several books by Vacchiano published by Peters. This one is excellent: it's the Moving Transposition book. No, Vacchiano didn't go all Emo late in life. It's what the old guard used to call "Roadmap" transposition etudes. A few measures in one transposition and then another and another, etc. The facing page has the same study in just one printed key with suggested whole-etude transpositions.
The twist is that, like most orchestral trumpet parts, there are no key signatures! All the accidentals are written in just like most orchestral parts. I recommend it highly as a great way to relearn the Sacshe book.
