Halo Sheet Music: Melodious Etudes for Trombone Book 2 [Paperback] Review

I have purchased this series [3] three times over the past 40 years because there just isn't any better way to sharpen your legato tonguing technique and improve your artistry. Did I mention that these etudes just plain sound great when played well. Some things are classics and this book of melodious etudes is surely one of them. By the way, I did not misplace them, I repurchased them [twice] after literally wearing them out.

PLEASE NOTE: This site is for book 2, or etudes 61-90. Compared to Book 1 this is quite challenging and frankly, Book 1 is not for beginners, which is why they now offer a "pre-book 1" edition which I have never seen. Also, it seems really out of balance to play out of this book [#2] without having gone through book 1. I know, because inadvertently when I replaced the books, I received book 2 and book 1 was delayed and I just could not bring myself to play it until I had gone through the etudes in book 1 first.
