Re: Great British trumpet teachers?

Complement:

Most likely, the reason for not spending much time with them on arban and other trumpet basics books, is that private lessons with those guys were rather expensive. Bassicaly I would get 1 hour with guy X and would prefer spending that time on some solo pieces or orchestral exceprts. We still worked on basics, but through those pieces. I don't know if this is wrong, but that's the way most of my lessons with them went. I remember one trumpet class led by John Miller about warm up and technical routines, but as it was not very different from any other good teacher I studied with, I did not take a special attention to. It was bassicaly the same what Jean-François Michel taught me at the Conseratoire de Fribourg (Switzerland) or Maurice Andre during his masterclass 2004 in Zurich (Switzerland)
