Minor Thirds Exercise (More developed players)
Here's a 'little' exercise I developed after listening to Ernie Watts talk about his warm up routine.
Start slowly and use different articulation patterns.
(eg, Two tongued, two slurred)
Also try in 3/4 and with triplets (see example on the bottom)
Have fun!

Updated Sample Book
Hi all,
I have had a few requests asking for a little more in the sample book.
I have updated the book and have included
- Introductory pages
- Units 1 and 2
- Contents of all Units
- Two extra pieces.
The upload is in review so I guess it will take a day or two to clear with Apple Book Store.
Please keep those reviews coming in!
Keep Jamming,
Mario
