36 Etudes Transcendantes by Theo Charlier
36 Etudes Transcendentes for Bb Trumpet by Theo Charlier, edited by Jean-Marie Cottet and Rob Roy McGregor. This is one of the most celebrated books of trumpet etudes ever published, and they will both challenge and reward you with their complexity, musicality, and shed-worthiness.
FROM CARL FISCHER:
In 1925, Theo Charlier published his 36 Études Transcendentes with Buffon-Crampon Publishers in Liège, Belgium. Based on his orchestral and teaching experiences, he felt the need to provide himself and his students with pedagogical materials to propel them to higher levels of technical and musical proficiency. That he succeeded in his aims is beyond doubt. This collection of etudes has been studied by trumpet players for nearly 100 years and they are as relevant now as when they first appeared.
