OUTLINE OF STUDY FOR THE TRUMPET CRANE SCHOOL OF MUSIC


This outline represents a sequential pattern of methods and solo material through which an entering freshman can complete trumpet requirements at the Crane School of Music for the Bachelor of Music Education Degree. Candidates for the Bachelor of Music (performance) and Masters degree programs recieve an intensification of this schedule according to individual needs. This representative material is used as a study guide from which deviations are made commensurate with individual needs. Ample proficiency on the C, D, E-flat, and piccolo trumpet is expected.
