For Study on the Natural Horn (introduced as a secondary instrument to interested moderately advanced hornists)
*Also, of course, recommending my publications, Ultimate Horn Technique and Ultimate Low Horn (Horn Notes Edition), which are perfectly geared to my needs as a teacher of college horn students. **My name is in the preface of the new Carl Fischer edition of the Kopprasch etudes, but I don’t endorse it. There are quite a number of changes compared to their previous edition, which I personally preferred. It was the standard version most teachers used, but sadly it is now but a memory. The best alternate today is the Chambers edition published by International. It has the same, traditional layout of the music inherited from the Gumpert edition from the early 1880s and works equally well for the student and the teacher used to the original Carl Fischer version.
