Edward’s Concerto Classics series for trumpet, clarinet, flute and violin, published by Boosey & Hawkes. These books feature popular concertos, simplified for intermediate players – you get all the good tunes, without the difficult bits!
Torelli One-Too, published by Warwick Music, is a jazz version of the first movement of Torelli’s trumpet concerto and appears on the grade 7 ABRSM syllabus. It was written for Edward’s close friend and colleague, James Stretton (as was Haydn Sleek in the Spiky Airs series).

Arban Lite books 1 and 2, published by Clifton Edition. These are comprehensive books of original exercises modelled on the Arban, designed to consolidate important areas of technique (eg. slurs, fingering and tonguing) and musicality (eg. dotted and syncopated rhythms, phrasing and scales). Book 1 is aimed at complete beginner to grade 2 standard; book 2 covers grades 3 to 5. If you are frustrated by the lack of depth of exercises in tutor books, but don’t have time to write out your own, these books are for you.
An arrangement of the Haydn Trumpet Concerto slow movement, transposed down a fourth, so the original E flat part can be played on a B flat trumpet. Approximately grade 4 standard.
