Daily Routines for Euphonium
Daily Routines for Euphonium by David Vining is suitable for advanced high school through professional euphonium players.
A daily routine is an integral part of any euphonium players practice regimen. Daily Routines for Euphonium provides a systematic way to develop and improve fundamentals, helping to establish consistency in all areas of playing. There are nine routines, each divided into skill categories: long tones, crescendo/diminuendo, flexibility, subito dynamics, resonant low playing, articulation, and high range and low warm-down. Additional resources included in this book are progress charts, an articulation spectrum, and supplemental long tones. Daily Routines for Euphonium ensures that players will be challenged in unique and helpful ways.
I commend this book to students everywhere. It contains very well structured exercises and shows a real appreciation of all the skills necessary to become a fine brass player. Given patient practice of these routines, progress is guaranteed. I congratulate the author on his intuitive knowledge and his ability to breathe new life into daily routines. - Steven Mead, International Euphonium Soloist
