Languages : en
Pages : 64
Book Description
Cat Anderson was one of the greatest high note trumpeters of all time. He consistently played musical passages in the extreme upper register every night of his professional career from 1935 to 1981, most of it with the Duke Ellington Orchestra. Geoff Winstead is a professional musician in Southern California who studied with Cat for 8 years and is one of less than 10 actual students that Cat took under his wing (paw?) and may be the only one who went through his entire "method" with him. This book is meant for the serious student, semi-pro or professional trumpet player who wants to increase range, consistency, stamina and power, which are constantly being expanded in today's music. Every lesson has detailed instructions on how to approach each exercise, question and answer areas to help you where you may have problems, links to websites with other valuable information, including "The Science of Breath", which was recommended by Maynard Ferguson in all of his clinics, and personal anecdotes about Cat. The Real Way To Play The Cat Anderson Trumpet Method is meant to correct errors in Cat's original book by putting lessons and exercises into the correct order and include instructions that were never published.

Her friend didn't say why, but Amra knew the reason: Amra was Muslim. It was the first sign her world was changing. Then Muslim refugees from other Bosnian cities started arriving, fleeing Serbian persecution. When the tanks rolled into Bihac, bringing her own city under seige, Amra's happy life in her peaceful city vanished. But there is light even in the darkest of times, and she discovered that light in the warm, bonfire eyes of a stray cat. The little calico had followed the refugees into the city and lost her own family. At first, Amra doesn't want to bother with a stray; her family doesn't have the money to keep a pet. But with gentle charm this kitty finds her way into everyone's heart, and after a few near miracles when she seems to save the family, how could they turn her away? Here is the stunning true story of a teen who, even in the brutality of war, never wavered in her determination to obtain an education, maintain friendships, and even find a first love-and the cat who gave comfort, hope, and maybe even served as the family's guardian spirit.
