| Champ, hurling insults like this is out of line. Pops spends an awful lot of time here giving good thoughtful answers free of charge and far less time selling stuff. There no snake oil here, just sound advice. Champ, if you've got something to contribute the floor is yours. If all you have are unwaranted and unjustified insults I'd like to invite you to please ignore this and all his other posts that all the rest of us enjoy and appreciate so much. |

No quick fix here, pal. I practice hard, so don't presume that just because I have this book I want a quick fix - how terribly ignorant and insulting of you! Do you have the supreme knowledge of brass playing? I bet you don't even have an Arban on account of just intuitively knowing everything. Seriously, you aren't contributing to this forum. Leave.

No, YOU are unbelievable. Where do you get off on this? Go one further and don't post on this forum again. I'd tell you another thing that you could go and do, but then I would be breaking legitimate forum rules; though I am sure that even your pathetic faculties will work out what I mean. I do NOT welcome your posting, nor do I want to read anything that you have to say. I implore you to leave and to allow us to post in a civilised manner - this forum is not a toilet for your posts.

Champ,
As a trumpet player of 31 + years who is listed in the top ten in my genre (# 7) I could not disagree with you more. 
Pops is one of the finest trumpet teachers in the world.
I'm a pro, # 3 in my genre in # of concerts to date. As a professional adjudicator and an instructor I want to sound like Pops. I want for my students to sound like Pops.
But I do like your name "Champ". 
I have an all new Cd "TULSA" coming out this December. A lot of acoustic guitar and flugelhorn. TULSA is the finest CD that I have ever recorded. You are really going to love it!

I really hope you are using your ability to see through the hype for something really important, like this whole swine flu scam. Take a look at www.mercola.com.

Hi,
I¨m with you CHAMP. Yes these POP¨s books make no sense. And
one of his marketing play is to make people angry and post to TH.
AND then he is selling even more ...
He is very good in marketing...
Kind Regards

For those of you that do not agree with anything Pops says:
How much of it have you tried yourself?
Have you thought of all the players he has worked with, not just amateur, but professional musicians that agree his theory and and techniques work.
I think that his ideas and teaching are wonderful. The fact that he offers so much for free on his website and charges a very small amount for any of his books says to me that he is not doing this for the money.
Try something seriously before you discredit it to the extant you have. You can't read it and say "No, that doesn't work." You are thinking like a child. Grow up.

How does this book differ from the numerous range and embouchure exercises that have been published? I'm not familiar with Don Jacoby's method. That's why I asked.
I'm currently working on the warm up and flexibility exercises by James Stamp, supplemented by Roy Poper's commentary. I also use the Bill Knevitt Crash Course exercises from time to time. |

I've got Pops' "30 Minutes A Day" book and can honestly say I think it's one of the best trumpet maintenance books out there. I've just bought "More Power, More Range" as an ebook and am enjoying getting stuck that as well.
Thank you Pops for your generous contributions. |
