Joseph Alessi, the world-class trombone soloist, pedagogue and current principal trombone of the New York Philharmonic recognizes that, as musicians, each must be able to play all the most popular orchestral excerpts. Unfortunately, Mr. Alessi realizes that musicians don’t practice these excerpts nearly enough. With the Alessi ExcerptUP practice tool, both teachers and students enjoy the challenge of mastering and having fun learning to play orchestral excerpts for their instrument. This ExcerptUP is specifically designed for tuba players to enhance their playing. A unique practice tool for when chance meets skill.
