Students
Warm up exercises for developing breath control, sound, and building range. Start at quarter = 64 and gradually increase tempo. As you get faster, breath in as relaxed a manner as at the slower tempo. As the tempo increases, also increase the volume. Before each exercise practice with a breathing bag at the tempo that you will play. Imagine the ideal trombone sound while "playing" the breathing bag. These should be done in all keys with a tuner.
More exercises to come.
