| Re: Stretching Range
Clarke, Arban, et al are excellent! There are tons of exercises and methods for range that are nothing more than the trumpeter's version of bodybuilding.
Smith's Top Tones contains a very effective "bodybuilding" exercise for building the strength needed, followed by a bunch of (gasp!) musical etudes that produce endurance and practical range. Good stuff!
