iWarmUp For Trumpet

Welcome to 'iWarmUp', a unique platform for practicing fundamentals and jazz style, including long tones, lip slurs, articulation, range, chord arpeggiation, scales, and jazz vocabulary. These routines are designed to be performed with accompaniment by the iReal Pro app (sold separately), but you can also reap the benefits by simply playing the exercises with a good old-fashioned metronome.

You can personalize 'iWarmUp' to fit your needs. Beginning students can play the easier exercises at a slower tempo and skip the hard ones, while the most advanced college students and professionals can challenge themselves appropriately with faster tempos on the more difficult excerpts. Pick and choose from the excerpts that you enjoy and benefit from the most, omitting certain exercises of your choice if you are crunched for time on a given day. Improvise a chorus or two using the pitches in the exercise as a guide. Best of all, create your own custom 'iWarmUp' chapter for that big solo you’ve got coming up on the next jazz band concert.

'iWarmUp' can also be used in a group setting. No jazz experience is needed in order to use 'iWarmUp', which provides a change of pace for classical trumpet players. “Hard core” jazzers will immediately recognize the method’s applicability to their craft.
