I have played the flute for a few years, but it was never really my choice to play it. I have finally been able to find somewhere to rent a trumpet for a month so I can see how I like it. Anyways I was wondering what books did you use to learn the trumpet. I used the S.O.E. to learn the flute but I didn`t really think it was good any suggestions?

We used Accent on achievement. But buy books 1&2 though because if you aren`t using a teacher, you`ll tear up the first one with ease.

Most of it is just teaching rhythms and stuff and since you already play the flute you already know.

yeah dont do it

Well, I learned Trumpet from Essential Elements 2000 book Number 1 by the Hal-Leonard corperation: 7777 W. Bluemound Rd. P.O.Box 13819 Milwaukee, Wi 53213. Sry, no Web adress ...GOOD LUCK!!

essential elements is good

I also learned from the Essential Elements book, too. It`s easy because it comes with a c.d. to play along with.
