Why do Lip Slur Melodies? They help develop… • Air: Continuously flowing, no breaks • Embouchure: Focused and agile • Slide: Quick and accurate In this book (132 pages) you’ll find: • Beginning melodies • High range development melodies • Low range development melodies • Challenging and virtuoso melodies • 33 Duets Reviews / Endorsements I love playing these because they are beautifully melodic and every note is coming from and going to a natural slur. I think you have really hit the essence of Arnold Jacobs’ teaching. This makes it easy: just blow air and move your lips and slide with the rhythm. Thank you, Brad Edwards !!
