Workshop Description
The Trumpet All-State Prep workshops are
from a series of workshops spread out over the year which are aimed at
increasing the trumpet student's musical maturity. The series is presented
by well-known trumpeter, Eddie Lewis.
Workshop #3 is probably the most important
of the six workshops. The all-state audition music will be newly announced
and in this workshop the students will be given study guides, recordings,
and a tip sheet to make the learning process more efficient. Efficiency is
most important at this stage of the process. The students who struggle
with the music and spend the entire semester learning the etudes will lag
behind those who follow a more efficient strategy. The goal is to learn
the music early and polish it in the final weeks before the competition.
If you as a student have been following the program up to this point, you
will have a solid foundation to build on. By Workshop #3, you should be
able to use vibrato confidently, be able to play musical phrases, have
enough rhythmic control to play three vs. two and four, have command of
most arpeggios, and you should have been through all keys of the
tonalization studies. Note that these are not prerequisites for Workshop
#3. Instead, they are part of the winning strategy outlined in this
workshop series. Students who have
reached this level of playing before the music is announced will do far
better than those who have not.
That said, this workshop is for ALL high school trumpet players at all
levels. If you haven’t spent the summer practicing, don’t let it
discourage you because the things you learn from this workshop will make a
difference for you, too. If you missed workshops #1 and #2, do not
make the mistake of missing workshop #3 as well.
