DESCRIPTION:
Instrumentalist said 38-yr old book a "bellwether" for Symphonic Fundamentals It is not by accident that Mr. Edwin Kleinhammer's name appears on many, many symphony musicians' bios. There are plenty of outstanding players, but "teaching" world class artists is another thing. CSO artists Mr. Kleinhammer and the late Mr. Arnold Jacobs and the late Mr. Frank Crisafulli have trained innumerable (global) lower brass artists for well over thirty years each. I have had the pleasure of receiving a group lesson from Mr. Klein. 8-yr old book a "bellwether" for Symphonic Fundamentals. It is not by accident that Mr. Edwin Kleinhammer's name appears on many, many symphony musicians' bios. There are plenty of outstanding players, but "teaching" world class artists is another thing. CSO artists Mr. Kleinhammer and the late Mr. Arnold Jacobs and the late Mr. Frank Crisafulli have trained innumerable (global) lower brass artists for well over thirty years each. I have had the pleasure of receiving a group lesson from Mr. Klein. Good Reference Wesley Gonzales A good reference for all Trombonists. A little too much for the beginner. Clearly written long ago (1963) based on the writing style and particularly when referencing the strobotuner! A little strange when referring to himself in the third person (i.e. "the writer"), but a highly recommended text for intermediate and above.. Three Stars Matthew T. Meredith not a lot of music in here. more of an instructional book.
Edward Kleinhammer, author of The Art of Trombone Playing, joined the Civic Orchestra, the training orchestra for the Chicago Symphony, in 1940. He has played under every Chicago Symphony Orchestra conductor, covering from Frederick Stock to Sir Georg Solti. While Kleinhammer states that his book "is written for the student who has no teacher available or for the teacher seeking more fundamental knowledge of the field of trombone playing," he emphasizes that it is also "for the trombonist (in any stage of proficiency) who is always a student.". In 1986 he received the Distinguished Service Award from the International Trombone Association. After two years he was accepted by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, where he remained for his entire career until he retired in 1985
