This is a systematic guide with exercises that creates a great foundation. The book and DVD starts with teaching the basics about the trumpet, music and playing your first notes. (The intro video is awkward with the host reading from an off camera script, after that it gets better.) The student can play along with lessons 1 - 4. After those, you only have the book to guide you through lesson 25. The lessons progress with a good pace; so that the student is not overwhelmed with text and too much musical notation. After you consistently play the lesson well, you are ready to move on. A lesson should take about 20 to 30 minutes. If you follow the suggestion "rest as much as you play", then you will double that time. This book's exercises starts off beginner and ends with mid intermediate. The book's range does not go above an A above the staff (A3). It stays with single tonguing.The book develops the embouchure as well as technical study in a balanced way. You eventually play through every key with scales and interval studies. Lips slurs are a part of every lesson. Most lessons end with a short melody.The only difficulty is that there are no examples audio or video when you get to some of the more difficult rhythms, such as syncopation. The later studies could benefit with audio examples. I also recommend that the student play a few long tones before the later lessons. The lessons do not have much of a warm up and I suggest in few notes in lower part of the staff, like G or F. Take a full breath and play the note for as long as you can. Just as you begin to run out of air, play a little louder until you run out of air. Do not blast.I also recommend purchasing All About Trumpet BK/CD as supplement; and it is a good stand alone guide.

Essential for any trumpet player. Not much in the way of concepts in this book, but each "lesson" is a pretty thorough routine. Add your own warm-up and practice with this and you should do pretty well. I recommend this book for all my beginning and intermediate students!

Great step by step book for developing your trumpet skills.
