 | Chords for Trumpet I saw a book called "Chords for Trumpet" or something very similar. It was copyrighted in 1965 and at one time (maybe even today) was used at Berklee. It contained all the different types of chords (major, minor, diminished, 7th, extended...) with scales and chord notes as well as lines of notes that fit in that chord. It was all organized by chords. Does anyone know where I can buy this book? I saw it at someones house and it looked really old. Thanks |

The book you are referring to is called "Chord Studies for Trumpet". It was originally written for Saxophone by Joe Viola, and it was adapted for Trumpet by Joe and Ray Kotwica. It is a great book that is quite challenging in that it runs you through all the keys and all the chords associated in that particular tonal center throughout the entire range of the trumpet. I used this book quite often when I was @ Berklee, and upon seeing this thread I went into my library to dig it out and start shedding it once again! Man, I forgot what a workout this book can be! The publisher is "Berklee Press", and unfortunately it is permanently out- of -print!  Maybe it can be had on e-bay? Check out this site, maybe they can be of some help: Pat MusicLast edited by The BuZZ : 04-05-2007 at 12:22 PM. | |

| Re: Chords for Trumpet I tried to order from the link that Adam Smith provided (thanks Adam!). Unfortunately, even though their system said it was available, and took my credit card info etc. after much more difficulty than there should have been, they never notified me of any problems. I had to go to their site for to find out that "Item unavailable from our major suppliers. We have canceled your order and your card has not been charged. We apologize for the disappointment." I'll keep my eye out for it elsewhere (e-bay and ??)--it sounds great! |

| Re: Chords for Trumpet With a little study and effort, you could do all that yourself. There are only 48 basic chords you need to know, and they're all diatonic. MA7, mi7th, dominant 7th and mi7b5. Then a few altered dominants that are all used with modes of the melodic minor scale. Go ahead, dig a little deeper, you can find the answers with a little effort.
