My new book, entitled Advanced Warm Up and Daily Routine for Tuba, is designed to provide advanced students, professional and aspiring professionals tuba players with a useful guide to warming up and daily exercises.This new series of exercises enables tuba players to achieve advanced, rapid and step-by-step progression in embouchure and, as a result, in their technical precision and speed, so as to attain virtuosity in the two different areas covered by the book. In particular, this enables:&bull; step-by-step development and progression in embouchure&bull; improvement and increased confidence in attack&bull; improvement and increased confidence in all register&bull; improvement and increased confidence in control in legato&bull; increased confidencein moving from one register to another and in leaps of over two octaves&bull; increased technical precision and speed&bull; attainment of virtuosity in the two areas covered by the book. My advice is to tackle these exercises starting at a comfortable pace (75 &ndash; 80 on the metronome) and then to gradually pick up speed in order to reach the maximum attainable pace. Another idea might be to practice in major and minor keys on alternate days, or to play in the ordinary way on one day and the opposite the next. Everything is at the sole discretion of the player.As always, I leave full freedom of execution up to tuba players who want to try their hand at this new series of daily exercises for advanced, rapid and step-by-step progression as part of their musical training. <i>Angelo Piazzini</i>
